ASTM A 515/A 515M Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Pressure Vessel Plates, Carbon Steel, for Intermediate- and Higher-Temperature Service
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Sep 10, 2003
Scope:
This specification2 covers carbon-silicon steel
plates primarily for intermediate- and higher-temperature service
in welded boilers and other pressure vessels.
Plates under this specification are available in three grades
having different strength levels.
The maximum thickness of plates is limited only by the capacity
of the composition to meet the specified mechanical property
requirements; however, current practice normally limits the maximum
thickness of plates furnished under this specification.
For plates produced from coil and furnished without heat
treatment or with stress relieving only, the additional
requirements, including additional testing requirements and the
reporting of additional test results, of Specification A 20/ A 20M
apply.
The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to
be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units
are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not
exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used
independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems
may result in nonconformance with the specification.
2 For ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code
applications, see related Specification SA-515/SA-515M in Section
II of that Code.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
