ASTM A335 P5 Alloy Steel Pipe is a seamless ferritic alloy steel pipe engineered for high-temperature applications, providing excellent corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Manufactured to meet ASTM A335/ASME SA335 specifications, this Chrome Moly Pipe features a chemical composition optimized for durability and stability under extreme operating conditions. It is widely used in power plants, refineries, and petrochemical industries for boiler tube protection and other high-pressure pipeline systems.

The pipe is produced through hot-rolling and heat treatment processes to achieve superior mechanical properties, including enhanced tensile strength, yield strength, and creep resistance at temperatures up to 550°C. Its seamless construction ensures uniformity and reliability, minimizing the risk of weld failures or structural weaknesses. The alloy’s balanced chromium and molybdenum content improves oxidation resistance and reduces susceptibility to corrosion and wear in aggressive industrial environments.

ASTM A335 P5 Alloy Steel Pipe supports various fabrication techniques, including bending, welding, and flanging, with recommended preheat and post-weld heat treatment to maintain metallurgical integrity. Available in a range of sizes and thicknesses, it suits diverse project requirements from boiler tubing to high-temperature process piping.

The pipe undergoes stringent quality control measures, including tensile testing, hardness checks, and hydrostatic pressure testing, to ensure compliance with ASTM standards. Its ability to resist thermal stress, oxidation, and corrosive chemicals makes it ideal for harsh applications in energy generation and chemical processing industries.

Compared to other alloy steel pipes like P11 or P22, the P5 grade offers a balanced solution for moderate temperature ranges where corrosion resistance and mechanical strength are crucial. It is a cost-effective choice for protecting critical industrial pipelines and equipment subject to heat and corrosive media.

Engineers and project managers rely on ASTM A335 P5 Alloy Steel Pipe for its proven performance in boiler pipeline protection and industrial wear resistance, ensuring long service life and reduced maintenance costs in challenging environments.

FAQ

ASTM A335/ASME SA335 covers seamless ferritic alloy steel pipes for high-temperature service. Its equivalents include DIN 17175 (e.g., 13CrMo44, 10CrMo910), EN 10216-2, and GB standards like 15CrMo5 and 12Cr2Mo. Grade-specific equivalents include ASTM A213 T11 and A369 FP11.

ASTM A335 pipes are used in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, such as in boilers, superheaters, and heat exchangers in power plants, refineries, petrochemical facilities, and chemical processing plants.

ASTM A335 P11 pipe is a seamless chrome moly alloy pipe with Cr content of 1.00–1.50%, Mo content of 0.44–0.65%, minimum tensile strength of 415 MPa, and minimum yield strength of 205 MPa. Common lengths are 6m, 12m, or customized.

ASTM A333 is designed for low-temperature applications (down to -50°F), using carbon or low-alloy steel. ASTM A335 is for high-temperature use, utilizing alloy steel with elements like Cr and Mo. A333 is used in LNG/refrigeration systems, while A335 is used in boilers and power plants.

ASTM A335 is the standard specification for seamless ferritic alloy-steel pipes intended for high-temperature service. It’s commonly referred to as chrome moly pipe and is available in grades like P5, P9, P11, P22, and P91.

Yes. ASTM A335 Chrome Moly Pipe is specifically designed to handle high-pressure environments effectively, especially in power generation and petrochemical systems.

While ASTM A335 pipes may be susceptible to corrosion, especially in aggressive environments, applying proper coatings or using corrosion-resistant alloys significantly enhances their performance.

ASTM A335 Chrome Moly Pipes are manufactured through a seamless hot-finished or cold-drawn process, ensuring structural integrity and reliability under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.

Unlike seamed pipes, ASTM A335 Chrome Moly Pipes are seamless, eliminating welded joints and weak points. This provides superior strength and reliability under extreme temperature and pressure.
