16mo3 material specification

The 16Mo3 material is a European standard steel grade used for high-temperature applications in the fabrication of boilers, pressure vessels, and pipes. It is part of the EN 10028 standard and is widely recognized for its excellent heat resistance and strength under high temperatures.

Chemical Composition:

The typical chemical composition of 16Mo3 is as follows:

Mechanical Properties:

Features and Benefits:

• High-Temperature Resistance: With molybdenum as an alloying element, it exhibits excellent resistance to oxidation and scaling at elevated temperatures.
• Good Weldability: Suitable for both manual and automatic welding processes.
• Versatile Applications: Widely used in petrochemical plants, power generation, and chemical industries.

Heat Treatment:

• Normalizing at 890–950°C to achieve optimal properties.
• Stress-relieving may also be performed to reduce residual stresses.

Applications:

• Boilers and pressure vessels
• Heat exchangers
• Piping systems in power plants
• Petrochemical industry components

16Mo3’s combination of heat resistance, strength, and weldability makes it a preferred material for high-temperature and pressure environments.
