EN 10028-2 P295GH Steel Plate | P295GH High Temp Vessel Plate

P295GH is the mid carbon grade in EN 10028-2. Buyers search EN 10028-2 P295GH, P295GH steel plate, 1.0481, P295GH equivalent and P295GH high temp vessel plate. GH means specified elevated-temperature properties. This page sits between P265GH and P355GH. It is not EN 10028-3 fine-grain low-temperature plate and not EN 10028-4 nickel plate.

Yield is 295 MPa at ≤16 mm. Tensile is 460–580 MPa. Steel number is 1.0481. 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 against a P295GH drawing. P265GH yield is 265 MPa. Do not ship P355GH and call 355 close to 295 unless the buyer writes both names. The closest Chinese carbon comparison is often Q345R steel plate on the low side of that book, or Q245R steel plate if the file is weaker. The closest ASME carbon comparisons are often SA516 Grade 65 and SA515 Grade 65. Do not ship SA516 Grade 70 and call 70 the same as P295GH. 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 P295GH usually open ASME SA516 or ASME SA515.

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 P295GH chemical composition and 1.0481 chemistry should be answered from this table, not from a P355GH or SA516 Grade 70 page.

Cast Analysis and Product Analysis — EN 10028-2 P295GH (1.0481)

P295GH is killed carbon steel. Manganese sits between P265GH and P355GH. Carbon is a range, not only a maximum. 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 P295GH mechanical properties, P295GH yield strength and P295GH 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 P295GH

Elongation is typically 21–22% min on thinner plate. 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 295 MPa yield on every thickness. Do not treat 460–580 MPa tensile as permission to stamp SA516 Grade 65 or A516 Grade 70 without checking both books.

P295GH is the grade buyers choose when P265GH looks light and P355GH looks heavy. That mid position is useful. It is also the reason substitution arguments start. A drawing that says P355GH is not filled by P295GH. A drawing that says P265GH is not automatically upgraded to P295GH unless the buyer writes the new name.

Search habits on Google mix P295GH equivalent, 1.0481 equivalent and P295GH vs A516 Grade 65. Those names help a buyer find the right page. They do not authorize substitution.

Buyers pick P295GH when a PED boiler, drum, tank or heat-exchanger shell names the 295 MPa EN 10028-2 carbon step. Search phrases such as P295GH boiler plate, P295GH pressure vessel plate and 1.0481 steel plate all point to this grade.

It is the practical mid grade. Some European files still write P295GH because the calculation was done on 295 MPa, not 355 MPa. Changing the name to P355GH is a design change, not a warehouse convenience. Changing the name down to P265GH is also a design change.

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 and not Cr-Mo plate like 15CrMoR steel plate.

An ASME file should name the SA/ASTM grade on ASTM A516 or ASTM A515 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.

P295GH is killed carbon vessel plate in the 460–580 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 P295GH tensile band. A procedure written for P265GH may be light. 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 P295GH (+N). As-rolled is not the default for pressure work. Buyers who search P295GH normalized or P295GH +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 P295GH; 1.0481; 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 P295GH 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/A36M 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.

P295GH is less common in some export yards than P265GH or P355GH. Say so on the inquiry if the schedule is tight. Mill rolling remains the reliable route.

SHH STEEL is a global steel mill sourcing partner and steel manufacturer & exporter (mill-direct, China origin). On EN 10028-2 P295GH that means mill pricing, 1.0481 chemistry reported as cast analysis and as product analysis when ordered, recorded +N, tensile results to the correct thickness column, 3.1 as standard and 3.2 when specified.

We keep the grade on the order. P295GH is not P265GH. P295GH is not P355GH. P295GH is not Q345R steel plate. P295GH is not SA516 Grade 70. If the drawing says P355GH, we will not ship P295GH and call carbon close.
