Hindustan Steel Corporation supplies ASTM A387 Grade 11 and Grade 22 Chrome Moly alloy steel plates, engineered specifically for high-temperature pressure vessel and boiler applications. These plates offer excellent creep resistance, thermal stability, and oxidation resistance due to their Chromium-Molybdenum composition.
Available in Class 1 and Class 2, these plates meet ASME standards and are widely used in oil refineries, thermal power plants, petrochemical units, and pressure equipment that operate above 500°C. With stock in normalized and tempered conditions, we deliver material that performs under stress — thermally, mechanically, and chemically.
ASTM A387 is a specification for chromium-molybdenum alloy steel plates intended for welded boilers and pressure vessels designed for elevated temperature service. The Gr 11 and Gr 22 variants differ in chromium and molybdenum content, affecting their strength and corrosion resistance.
These plates are ideal for welded pressure equipment subjected to heat, corrosion, and internal pressure.
Chrome Moly plates are essential in equipment where long-term heat exposure and internal pressure are unavoidable. Common applications include:
A387 Gr 11/22 plates resist oxidation, sulfidation, and thermal fatigue in continuous service.
| Property | A387 Gr 11 Cl 2 | A387 Gr 22 Cl 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Yield Strength (min) | 275 MPa | 310 MPa |
| Tensile Strength | 485–620 MPa | 585–760 MPa |
| Elongation (%) | Min 19–22% | Min 17–20% |
| Impact Resistance (Charpy) | Improved in Class 2 | Higher in Class 2 |
| Service Temperature | Up to ~550°C | Up to ~600–650°C |
Both grades offer excellent thermal performance, dimensional stability, and creep strength under prolonged stress cycles.
ASTM A387 Gr 11 and Gr 22 are globally recognized alloy steel plate grades for elevated-temperature service. They conform to ASME SA387 as their code-compliant counterpart and align with several international equivalents.
| Standard | Equivalent Material |
|---|---|
| ASME | SA387 Gr 11 Cl 2 / SA387 Gr 22 Cl 2 |
| EN (Europe) | 13CrMo4-5 (Gr 11), 10CrMo9-10 (Gr 22) |
| DIN (Germany) | 1.7335 (Gr 11), 1.7380 (Gr 22) |
| BS (UK) | 620B (Gr 11), 621B (Gr 22) |
| IS (India) | IS 2041 equivalent alloy steel (approx.) |
We offer Class 2 variants with enhanced tensile strength and 3.1/3.2 certified plates for both domestic and international EPC projects.

Choosing between Gr 11 and Gr 22 depends on service temperature, design life, and corrosion factors.
| Selection Criteria | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Moderate heat (up to ~540°C) | Gr 11 Class 2 |
| Higher thermal exposure (up to ~600°C) | Gr 22 Class 2 |
| Enhanced creep strength needed | Gr 22 (2.25% Cr) |
| Cost-effective high-temp alloy | Gr 11 (1.25% Cr) |
| Pressure vessel with PWHT | Gr 11 / Gr 22 Class 2 preferred |
Tip: For oil refineries and steam-based chemical service, Gr 22 Cl 2 offers longer life at slightly higher cost. Always check with your WPS/PQR or process engineer.
