EN 10216-2 1.4903 X10CrMoVNb9-1 Seamless Steel Tubes
EN 10216-2 1.4903 X10CrMoVNb9-1 Seamless Steel Tubes for pressure purposes (power plant boiler tubes/oil refinery boiler tubes)
EN 10216-2 1.4903 X10CrMoVNb9-1 Seamless Steel Tubes is a high temperature alloy steel, a type of ferritic/martensitic stainless steel. It contains high levels of alloying elements such as chromium, molybdenum, vanadium and niobium, which work together to significantly enhance the corrosion resistance, heat resistance and high temperature strength of the steel tube.
1.4903 X10CrMoVNb9-1 Steel
1.4903 X10CrMoVNb9-1 Steel can maintain stable performance under extreme working conditions. This steel is widely used in high temperature and high pressure environments such as power stations, especially in nuclear power plants, where it is widely used in the manufacture of equipment such as reactor pressure vessels, heat exchangers, steam generators, and piping systems. Its excellent heat resistance and resistance to stress corrosion cracking make 1.4903 X10CrMoVNb9-1 steel perform particularly well in these extreme environments.
