EN 10216-2 P265GH Seamless Steel Pipes Tubes For Pressure Purposes
We are a professional manufacturer of EN 10216-2 P265GH Seamless Steel Pipes Tubes For Pressure Purposes in China.
The DIN EN 10216-2 standard specifies the requirements for seamless non-alloy and alloy steel tubes for specified elevated temperature conditions. Primarily used in the construction of pressure equipment such as boilers, heat exchangers, and pipelines.
EN 10216-2 falls under the broader EN 10216 series, which covers seamless steel tubes intended for use in pressurized systems. The “-2” part of the standard refers to a specific section for carbon and carbon-manganese steel tubes, designed for use in high-temperature conditions
EN 10216-2 P265GH Materials Grade
EN 10216-2 pipes are manufactured using carbon steel or carbon-manganese steel, which are materials with good strength and heat resistance. Common materials under this standard include:
- P265GH: P265GH is a carbon steel for pressure vessels and boilers, with “P” for pressure and “265” for 265 MPa minimum yield strength. “GH” indicates high-temperature use under the EN 10028-2:2009 standard.
What is P265GH?
P265GH is a non-alloy carbon steel consisting of approximately 98% iron, 0.16-0.20% carbon, along with small amounts of manganese (0.7-1.4%), silicon (≤0.40%), phosphorus (≤0.025%), and sulfur (≤0.015%). It’s a solid grey steel used in pressure vessels and boilers, known for weldability and heat resistance. Hot-rolled, it belongs to pressure vessel steels and is widely used in the power, oil, and gas industries.
Characteristics of P265GH Steel
P265GH is a carbon steel known for its excellent weldability, high-temperature resistance, good mechanical strength, and cold-bending performance. It performs well under pressure, making it ideal for boilers, pressure vessels, and heat exchangers. Its durability and resistance to moderate corrosion make it suitable for the power generation, oil, and gas industries. Alternatives like P355GH, 16Mo3, or 13CrMo4-5 may be more appropriate if higher strength or better corrosion resistance is needed.
