Shalan Steel, a Kuala lumpur, Malaysia-based leading manufacturer and exporter of high-quality Boiler Quality (BQ) plates and sheets offers corrosion-resistant and high-strength steel products for extreme applications in oil and gas, power plants, petrochemicals, and shipbuilding. Our BQ plates are engineered to handle extreme temperatures and pressure, providing long-lasting durability and safety for boilers, pressure vessels, and heat exchangers. With a focus on quality, innovation, and industry standards, Shalan Steel provides consistent steel solutions for demanding industrial applications.
Boiler Quality (BQ) plates and sheets are carbon steel alloys containing elements such as carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and silicon, providing high weldability and strength. They possess high tensile strength, good toughness, and pressure-induced cracking resistance. Superior heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and good formability are some of the advantages, and they are well suited for boilers, pressure vessels, and heat exchangers. BQ plates are commonly applied in power plants, petrochemicals, and shipbuilding, providing safety and efficiency in high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
Standard: ASTM A516 / ASME SA 516 Gr 60 / 65/ 70
Width: 1000mm-4500mm
Thickness: 5mm-150mm
Length: 3000mm-18000mm
Supply Condition : As Rolled, Normalized Rolling, Furnace Normalizing, Vacuum Degassing, Simulated Post-Weld Heat Treatment or as per customer requirement.
Impact tested : -52° C
Tempering: Notch toughness can be improved by quenched cooling from hot rolling or normalizing by the supplier. If such a faster cooling rate is agreed upon between purchaser and supplier then the steel is also to be tempered at 1200 F.
Applications : Used for weld fabrication of pressure vessels that require improved notch toughness for lower than ambient temperature service.
Process of Manufacturing : Hot-Rolled (HR)
