JIS G3115 SPV315 Steel Plate | SPV315 Pressure Vessel Plate

IS G3115 SPV315, also written SPV 315, JISG3115 SPV315 and SPV315 steel plate, is a weldable pressure-vessel plate under JIS G3115. The standard title is Steel plates for pressure vessels for intermediate temperature service. SPV315 is the second strength step in that book. Yield is 315 MPa at 6–50 mm. Tensile is 490–610 MPa. Thickness may run to 150 mm. Usual delivery is as-rolled, with normalize allowed. TMCP or QT is allowed by agreement. SHH STEEL is a global steel mill sourcing partner and steel manufacturer & exporter (mill-direct, China origin) for this grade. Plate is produced to JIS G3115 and shipped to buyers in the USA, Europe, Middle East, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Africa and East Asia.

A purchase order that only says “SPV plate” is incomplete. Write JIS G3115 SPV315. Do not ship SPV235 against an SPV315 drawing. Do not ship SPV355 against an SPV315 drawing. Do not ship SA516 Gr.70 and call it SPV315 because tensile looks close.

JIS G3115 is not a low-temperature vessel book. Low-temperature Japanese plate belongs under JIS G3126. It is not boiler plate under JIS G3103 SB. It is not ordinary structural plate under JIS G3106. Intermediate-temperature service means the plate is intended for pressure vessels and high-pressure equipment that are not specified for high-temperature or low-temperature service under other JIS books.

This page is not DIN 17100 St52-3. It is not SA285 Gr.C. It is not QT alloy under ASME SA387 or ASME SA543.

Company scope: global steel mill sourcing partner – SHH STEEL.

This plate sits in pressure vessel steel plates and carbon steel plates. ASME comparisons belong on ASME SA516 and ASME SA285, not as automatic substitutes.

JIS G3115 SPV315 / SPV 315 heat analysis is given in JIS G3115 Table 3. Product analysis is not printed as a second official column in that table. When a destination file asks for product analysis, SHH STEEL applies the usual JIS check-analysis practice (JIS G0321 style): finished-plate chemistry is allowed a small extra tolerance over heat analysis. Write “heat + product analysis” on the order if both are required.

Heat Analysis and Product Analysis — JIS G3115 SPV315

Other elements may be added for deoxidation or grain practice. For TMCP or QT SPV315, carbon equivalent and Pcm limits from JIS G3115 also apply. Do not treat an SPV235 heat as SPV315. Do not treat an SPV355 heat as SPV315. SHH STEEL reports heat analysis on every certificate and product analysis when the order names it.

Yield starts at 315 MPa at 6–50 mm and falls as thickness rises.

Tensile and Yield — JIS G3115 SPV315

Elongation depends on thickness and specimen type. Bend testing is specified. Charpy energy for SPV315 is commonly 0 °C, average 47 J, individual 27 J. Write the test temperature if the destination file wants something other than the JIS default.

Do not quote 315 MPa yield on a 120 mm plate. Do not treat 490–610 MPa tensile as permission to stamp SA516 Gr.70, SA516 Gr.65 or SA299 Gr.A.

Same book. Different strength and different heat-treatment default. SHH STEEL will not ship SPV315 against an SPV410 TMCP drawing.

SA203 Gr.A, SA515 Gr.60 and SA662 Gr.A are also vessel plates. None of them is SPV315.

JIS G3115 SPV315 / SPV 315 is selected for welded pressure vessels, tanks and high-pressure equipment that still name the Japanese intermediate-temperature book at the 315 MPa step. It sits between SPV235 and SPV355. It is not automatically an ASME Section VIII plate. If the vessel is ASME, the drawing should name an ASME or ASTM grade such as SA516 Gr.70, SA516 Gr.65 or SA285 Gr.C.

SHH STEEL supplies this plate to fabricators in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, Africa and Asia. It is not nickel low-temp plate like SA203 Gr.D or SA203 Gr.E. It is not QT Ni-Cr-Mo like SA543 Type B Cl.1. It is not Cr-Mo like SA387 Gr.22 Cl.2. Stainless inquiries belong on ASME SA240 or ASTM A240.

SPV315 is killed C-Mn vessel plate at the 315 MPa step. Welding is production welding, and Code welding when the equipment is a vessel.

Qualify procedures to the applicable code. For ASME work that happens to use a dual-named plate, use ASME Section IX. Consumables should match the 490–610 MPa tensile band, not a SA387 Gr.12 Cl.2 Cr-Mo procedure and not a QT procedure from SA517 Gr.F. When TMCP or QT is used, Ceq and Pcm from JIS G3115 must stay inside the table. 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 as-rolled JIS G3115 SPV315 / SPV 315 plate. Normalize is allowed when the order names it. TMCP or QT is allowed by agreement and must be written on the purchase order. Those routes are not assumed.

If the vessel will see PWHT, test coupons shall follow a simulated cycle when the order names it. This is not the QT route used on SA738 Gr.B or SA737 Gr.C. Special heat treatment, extra simulation or third-party hold points add time. Plan about two months when those extras are on the order.

The certificate lists JIS G3115 SPV315 (and SPV 315 if requested); heat number; heat analysis; product analysis when ordered; tensile results to the correct thickness column; delivery condition; impact at the named temperature; Ceq / Pcm when TMCP or QT is used. Certificates may be EN 10204 3.1 or EN 10204 3.2. Dual marking to SA516 Gr.70 is not automatic.

Usual supply range from SHH STEEL for SPV315 pressure vessel plate:

• Thickness: commonly 6 mm – 150 mm. Confirm any request above 150 mm against mill capability
• Width: 1500 mm – 4000 mm
• Length: 3000 mm – 12000 mm
• Cut-to-length plates and nest sizes inside those limits

Ship plate inquiries belong on shipbuilding steel plates or BV Rules. Weathering plate belongs on EN 10025-5 or Corten A/B. TMCP fine-grain structural belongs on EN 10025-4. QT structural belongs on EN 10025-6. Ordinary structural belongs on EN 10025-2 or JIS G3106.

Dimensional limits follow the mill rolling standard named on the order. Do not apply ASTM A36/A36M structural tolerances to a JIS vessel plate without writing them. UT to JIS, EN 10160 or ASTM A435 / A577 / A578 is added when the order names it.

Most export JIS G3115 SPV315 / SPV 315 orders add extras. SHH STEEL does not assume them.

Charpy details. Temperature, energy, location and orientation. JIS default is commonly 0 °C.

Product analysis. Add this when the destination file wants finished-plate chemistry, not only ladle chemistry.

Ceq / Pcm. Required when TMCP or QT is selected.

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

NDE. UT per the named method.

Z-direction / through-thickness testing. When the drawing names Z15 / Z25 / Z35.

Third-party. EN 10204 3.2, with inspectors arranged for US, European, Middle East, Latin American or Asian documentation packages.

These names are project-comparison grades. They are not automatic substitutes.

ASME SA662 is not SPV315.

Stainless inquiries belong on stainless steel products, JIS G4305 or AISI stainless. Other vessel comparisons: SA203 Gr.B, SA302 Gr.B, A516 Grade 70, SA533 Type C Cl.2, SA517 Gr.P, SA738 Gr.C.
