1、Designation:A735/A735M12Standard Specification forPressure Vessel Plates,Low-Carbon Manganese-Molybdenum-Columbium Alloy Steel,for Moderate andLower Temperature Service1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A735/A735M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearo
2、f original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers low-carbon manganese-molybdenum-colu
3、mbium alloy steel plates for piping compo-nents and welded pressure vessels.1.2 Four different classes are covered,which provide vari-ous tensile strength properties.A Charpy V-notch energyabsorption requirement of 20 ftlbf 27J at 50F 45C isspecified for all grades.1.2.1 Classes 1 and 2 provide mini
4、mum yield strengthlevels of 65 ksi 450 MPa and 70 ksi 485 MPa respectively.Both classes can be provided in the as-rolled condition or in thequenched-and-tempered condition.1.2.2 Class 3 provides a minimum yield strength level of 75ksi 515 MPa.This grade can be provided in the as-rolled andprecipitat
5、ion heat-treated condition or in the quenched-and-tempered condition.1.2.3 Class 4 provides a yield strength level of 80 ksi 550MPa in the as-rolled and precipitation heat-treated condition.1.3 Current practice limits plate thickness furnished underthis specification.The individual manufacturer shou
6、ld beconsulted on size and thickness limitations.1.4 Welding procedures are of fundamental importance andmust be such as not to adversely affect the properties of thematerial,especially in the heat-affected zone.It is presupposedthat welding procedures will be suitable for the materials beingwelded.
7、1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.Within the text,theSI units are shown in brackets.The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents;therefore,each system mustbe used independently of the other.Combining values from thetwo
