16Mo3 steel is a pressure vessel steel that is applications with elevated temperatures according to EN 10028–2. It has improved mechanical properties and better creep resistance allowing it to be used up to 500°C. This makes it ideal for a wide range of uses where the plates will have to perform at a high temperature continuously.

EN10028-2 16Mo3 steel structure Applications

Typical applications for 16Mo3 grade include a wide range of power plant equipment, industrial exhaust, venting and flare systems and waste recycling and incineration plants. It is also valuable for machinery where parts are likely to remain hot for an extended period. In power plants it is regularly used in boilers, super heater tubes, collector and hot steam pipes, stove tubes and conduits. 16Mo3 is also used in various types of heat exchanger in both the upstream and downstream oil and gas industry.

Traditionally the blast furnaces are made of standard carbon pressure vessel steels, but 16Mo3 steel plate provides a good alternative as it is more resistant to the huge thermal stresses that it undergoes on a daily basis. The 16Mo3 steel machining parts is also more resistant to the corrosion formed by nitrates as nitrogen oxide is removed from the steel mix. And this combination of properties can increase the life expectancy of critical plant equipment and reduce downtime. For 16Mo3 steel machining parts heat resistance is provided by the 0.32% molybdenum alloying element.
