EN 10028-3 Grade P355NL2
EN 10028-3 Grade P355NL2 introduction
Steels for pressure vessels and boilers differ from other carbon-manganese structural steels due to their high resistance to pressure at all temperatures (ambient, low or high). The fundamental property of steels for pressure vessels is their ability to withstand high pressure at different temperatures. They have good weldability, as well as excellent toughness, and are suitable for normalisation annealing and stress-relief annealing (both treatments neutralise local hardening caused by welding).
