General requirements

The most important operational feature of all boiler steel is the stability of its indicators of heat capacity, thermal conductivity and density in a given temperature range (usually - not less than 350...400 ° C). For example, physical properties of one of the best boiler-type steels in this class - 15KhMF steel - correspond to the standards of the following table:

Operating temperature, °С Modulus of elasticity, GPa Thermal conductivity, deg-1 Thermal conductivity, W/mK Density, kg/m3
20 214 - - 7800
100 208 0,00112 41,58
200 201 0,00117 40,3
300 194 0,00125 38,6
400 187 0,00130 36,9
500 177 0,00135 32,7
600 169 0,00137 34,0

Thus, for boiler steel of this type the acceptable temperature range of application is 20...600°C. Evek GmbH offers to buy boiler steel at an affordable price in a wide range. We provide delivery of products to any point of the continent. The price is optimal.

Technical characteristic

Boiler steel differs from common steel in its increased plasticity characteristics and less tendency to harden after plastic deformation and rolling. This allows without the introduction of intermediate annealing to produce from sheet metal by drawing or bending rather complex parts of steam and hot water boilers. Tightness is also ensured by the absence of cracking during heating as well as after caulking of joints.

Thermophysical features

Given that welding is often used in the assembly of boilers, all grades of boiler steel must have an increased ability to weld. An important feature of boiler steel - the temperature of the beginning of scale formation (it does not matter only for structures that are permanently cooled by water).

Ultrasonic inspection

Given the risks of leaks in boilers and other steam installations, all profiles of boiler plate steel are subjected to ultrasonic inspection of the continuity of the steel sheet. For poor-quality melts may have pores, which are formed when cooling the material that has been hot-rolled.
