ASTM A516 gr 70 steel is one of the most widely used ASTM standard vessel steel. Under EN standard, there is an material as popular as ASTM A516 gr 70 steel in the globle market and has almost equal performance to ASTM A516 gr 70 steel in fabrication of pressure vessels and boilers. The mentioned ASTM A516 gr 70 equivalent EN steel is EN10028-2 P355GH steel.
Below BBN steel would like to make a comparison between ASTM A516 gr 70 steel and its equivalent EN steel P355GH.
Comparison between chemical composition of ASTM A516 gr 70 steel and A516 gr 70 equivalent EN steel P355GH:
