EN 10028-2 P235GH Steel Plate | P235GH High Temp Vessel Plate

P235GH is the lowest-strength carbon grade in EN 10028-2. Buyers type EN 10028-2 P235GH, P235GH steel plate, 1.0345, P235GH equivalent and P235GH high temp vessel plate into Google. GH means the plate carries specified elevated-temperature properties. This page is not EN 10028-3 fine-grain low-temperature plate and not EN 10028-4 nickel plate.

Yield is 235 MPa at ≤16 mm. Tensile is 360–500 MPa. Steel number is 1.0345. Delivery is usually normalized (+N). SHH STEEL is a global steel mill sourcing partner and steel manufacturer & exporter (mill-direct, China origin) for this grade.

Do not ship P265GH or P355GH against a P235GH drawing unless the buyer writes both names. P235GH is the 235 MPa step. The closest Chinese carbon comparison is often Q245R steel plate. The closest ASME carbon comparisons are often SA285 Grade C and A516 Grade 55. Do not ship SA516 Grade 70 or Q345R steel plate and call 70 / Q345 the same as P235GH. Dual marking is possible only when chemistry, tensile, impact and delivery all fit.

Company scope: China steel mill agent SHH STEEL.

This plate sits in pressure vessel steel plates and carbon steel plates. ASME carbon buyers comparing P235GH usually open ASME SA516 or ASME SA285.

Cast analysis follows EN 10028-2 Table 1. Product analysis follows EN 10028-1 when the order names finished-plate chemistry. Google queries such as P235GH chemical composition and 1.0345 chemistry should be answered from this table, not from a Q345R or SA516 Grade 70 page.

Cast Analysis and Product Analysis — EN 10028-2 P235GH (1.0345)

P235GH is killed carbon steel with a lower carbon cap than P265GH and a lower manganese band than P355GH. Residual Cr, Cu, Ni and Mo stay limited. This is not 0.3Mo plate and not 1.25Cr-0.5Mo plate. SHH STEEL reports cast analysis on every certificate and product analysis when ordered. Density is 7.85 g/cm³.

Buyers search P235GH mechanical properties, P235GH yield strength and P235GH tensile strength. Room-temperature values fall with thickness. Use the thickness column on the mill certificate, not the ≤16 mm headline on a 60 mm plate.

Tensile and Yield — EN 10028-2 P235GH

Elongation is typically 24% min on thinner plate, which is higher than P355GH. Impact at 0 °C, 27 J, is the usual option when the order names it. Elevated-temperature proof strength belongs to EN 10028-2. Ask for that table when the vessel calculation uses design temperature, not only room-temperature yield.

Do not quote 235 MPa yield on every thickness. Do not treat 360–500 MPa tensile as permission to stamp SA516 Grade 60 or A516 Grade 70 without checking both books.

Search habits on Google mix P235GH equivalent, 1.0345 equivalent and P235GH vs A516. Those names help a buyer find the right page. They do not authorize substitution.

Buyers pick P235GH when a PED boiler, drum, tank or heat-exchanger shell names the 235 MPa EN 10028-2 carbon step and does not need P265GH or P355GH strength. Search phrases such as P235GH boiler plate, P235GH pressure vessel plate and 1.0345 steel plate all point to this grade.

It is not a substitute for 16MnDR steel plate. That grade is GB/T 713.3 −40 °C plate. It is not a substitute for 06Ni9DR steel plate. That grade is 9Ni −196 °C plate. It is not 0.3Mo plate like 16Mo3 and not Cr-Mo plate like 15CrMoR steel plate.

An ASME file should name the SA/ASTM grade on ASTM A516 or ASTM A285 and then write extras. Dual marking is possible only when both books are met.

SHH STEEL supplies this plate to fabricators in the United States, Mexico, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

P235GH is killed carbon vessel plate in the 360–500 MPa tensile band. Treat welding as production welding, and as PED / ASME Code welding when the equipment is a vessel.

Qualify to the applicable code. ASME dual-name work uses ASME Section IX. Consumables must match the P235GH tensile band. A procedure written for SA516 Grade 70 is stronger metal and is not automatically valid. A Cr-Mo procedure written for SA387 Grade 12 Class 1 is the wrong family. Preheat follows thickness and hydrogen control. The fabricator owns the WPS. SHH STEEL can share mill heat data for that review.

Usual delivery from SHH STEEL is normalized EN 10028-2 P235GH (+N). As-rolled is not the default for pressure work. Buyers who search P235GH normalized or P235GH +N are asking for this route.

If the vessel will see PWHT, say so. Test coupons then follow a simulated cycle. Extra simulation, 3.2 hold points or special NDE add time. Plan about two months when those extras are on the order.

The certificate lists EN 10028-2 P235GH; 1.0345; heat number; cast analysis; product analysis when ordered; tensile to the correct thickness column; +N; impact when ordered; elevated-temperature values when ordered. Certificates may be EN 10204 3.1 or EN 10204 3.2.

Usual supply range from SHH STEEL for P235GH high temp vessel plate:

• Thickness: commonly 6 mm – 150 mm, thicker by mill agreement
• Width: 1500 mm – 4000 mm
• Length: 3000 mm – 12000 mm

Ship plate inquiries belong on shipbuilding steel plates. Structural plate belongs on structural steel plates or EN 10025-2. Stainless inquiries belong on stainless steel plates.

Dimensional limits follow EN 10028-1 and EN 10029 unless the order names another tolerance table. Do not apply ASTM A36 structural tolerances to a PED vessel plate without writing them.

Charpy details. Temperature, energy, location and orientation. 0 °C / 27 J is common, not assumed.

Product analysis. Add this when the destination file wants finished-plate chemistry.

Elevated-temperature proof strength. Add this when the calculation uses design temperature.

Simulated PWHT. When the equipment will be stress-relieved.

NDE. EN 10160 or the named UT class.

Third-party. EN 10204 3.2 when written.
