Full Standard Name: GB/T 5310-2017 (Partial Revision in 2023) "Seamless Steel Tubes for High-Pressure Boilers" Scope of Application: Used for heating surface tubes, headers, steam pipes, and high-temperature, high-pressure pipelines in high-pressure and ultra-high-pressure boilers, as well as petrochemical high-temperature and high-pressure pipelines.

Hot Selling Materials: 20G, 20MnG, 15CrMoG, 12Cr1MoVG (all with "G" – boiler-specific steel)

Material Introduction:

20G (High-quality carbon steel for boilers, most commonly used for export): An upgraded version of 20# steel specifically for boilers. G = boiler. Low carbon, high purity, S/P≤0.025% (stricter than ordinary 20#). Strong high-temperature stability, long-term resistance to 450~510℃, suitable for boiler water-cooled walls, economizers, and low-temperature superheaters.

20MnG (Manganese-based low-carbon boiler steel): Slightly higher Mn content, higher strength than 20G, good toughness and weldability. Used for medium-temperature and high-pressure components, partially replacing 20G to increase load capacity.

15CrMoG (Chromium-Molybdenum Alloy Heat-Resistant Steel): Contains Cr and Mo, exhibiting high temperature resistance, creep resistance, and strong oxidation resistance. Long-term service temperature is 500~550℃. Used in boiler superheaters, reheaters, and petrochemical high-temperature pipelines.

12Cr1MoVG (Chromium-Molybdenum-Vanadium High-Alloy Heat-Resistant Steel): Contains Cr, Mo, and V, exhibiting extremely high high-temperature strength and long-term stability. Commonly used in supercritical units, maintaining long-term stability at 580℃. Used in high-temperature superheaters/reheaters.

Product Advantages

High Temperature and High Pressure Dedicated, Authoritative Standards.Designed specifically for boilers and petrochemical high temperature and high pressure applications, conforming to ASME SA106B, SA213, and ASTM A335 standards.

High Purity and High Temperature Stability. Refined outside the ladle, S/P ≤ 0.025%, inclusions strictly controlled; high temperature creep, endurance strength, and oxidation resistance are far superior to ordinary fluid pipes (GB/T 8163).

Seamless + Intensive Heat Treatment, Safe and Reliable. Hot-rolled/cold-drawn seamless + normalized/quenched and tempered, uniform microstructure, grain size 5-8; each pipe undergoes hydrostatic testing (1.5 times design pressure) + ultrasonic/eddy current testing.

Warehousing Management

Before each batch of steel leaves the factory, a complete process inspection is strictly carried out. From chemical composition, mechanical properties to dimensional tolerance and surface quality, each item is carefully checked to ensure compliance with national standards and export regulations. At the same time, the quantity, packaging and rust prevention treatment are also verified. An original factory warranty certificate is attached, guaranteeing the quality. Before shipment, inspection photos are provided. Any non-compliant items will not be released, and the quality is fully controllable throughout the process. This ensures your overseas purchasing is safe and worry-free.

All items are visually inspected before delivery. No cracks, deformation, rust, scratches or cutting marks are allowed; edges must be smooth. Only visually sound products will be shipped.

Thickness, width, length, wall thickness, outer diameter have been measured. Straightness, curvature, torsion, diagonal tolerance all meet the corresponding tolerance requirements.

Quality inspection includes: mechanical property tests (yield strength, tensile strength), elongation rate, impact energy, hardness testing, chemical composition testing, process performance testing, etc.

Inspection according to packaging requirements: secure binding, moisture-proof film, rust-proof paper, export fumigation/fumigation-free wooden crates, shipping marks, gross weight, net weight, etc.

We will provide full reception services to support the customers' on-site inspection of the goods.
