SA516 Gr 70 NACE Sheets – Sour Service Certified Steel by Navgraha Steels INC, Mumbai

In refineries and petrochemical plants, one of the biggest risks is material rejection due to non-NACE compliance.
Without NACE-certified steel:

  • Sour gas exposure can cause sulfide stress cracking (SSC)
  • Auditors can reject non-compliant supply, delaying projects
  • EPC contractors face penalty costs and resourcing delays

At Navgraha Steels INC, Mumbai – Maharashtra – India, we supply SA516 Gr 70 NACE Certified Sheets that:

  • Meet NACE MR0175 / MR0103 standards for sour service
  • Carry IBR, HIC & third-party approvals
  • Arrive with inspection-ready MTCs for refinery acceptance

With us, you don’t just buy steel sheets — you secure your project against failure, audits, and shutdown risks.

What are SA516 Gr 70 NACE Sheets?

SA516 Gr 70 NACE Sheets are boiler and pressure vessel quality carbon steel sheets tested and certified for sour gas service as per NACE MR0175/MR0103.

They are ideal for:

  1. Refinery storage tanks & heat exchangers
  2. Petrochemical vessels & sour service piping
  3. Offshore platforms & oil rigs
  4. Boilers and power plants requiring corrosion-resistant steel

In short, these sheets are mandatory for any project handling H₂S or sour service environments.

Why Refineries & EPC Contractors Demand NACE Certified Sheets

Procurement teams often ask:

  • “Will these sheets survive hydrogen sulfide exposure?”
  • “Will auditors reject our order for missing NACE compliance?”
  • “Can we get both IBR and NACE in one supply?”

With Navgraha Steels INC supply, the answer is always YES:

  • NACE MR0175/MR0103 compliant sheets → audit proof
  • HIC & IBR tested sheets → refinery + boiler ready
  • Third-party approved supply → Lloyds, DNV, ABS, TÜV

That’s why leading EPCs and refineries trust Navgraha Steels INC for NACE-certified sheets.

Mechanical Properties of SA516 Gr 70 NACE Sheets

Property Typical Value Why It Matters
Tensile Strength 485–620 MPa Handles refinery & boiler pressures
Yield Strength Min 260 MPa Ensures reliability under heavy loads
Elongation 17–21% Allows safe forming & bending
Impact Resistance Up to -20°C Prevents brittle cracking at low temp
Hardness (BHN) ≤ 250 Ensures weldability & machinability

These properties make them fit for refinery-grade sour service applications where failure is not an option.

Chemical Composition – Low Sulfur, Low Phosphorus for Sour Gas Resistance

Element % Range Why Controlled?
Carbon (C) ≤ 0.21 Improves weldability, avoids brittleness
Manganese (Mn) 0.55–1.20 Adds strength while keeping toughness
Phosphorus (P) ≤ 0.020 Extra low → prevents sulfide cracking
Sulfur (S) ≤ 0.010 Extra low → resists hydrogen-induced corrosion
Silicon (Si) 0.13–0.45 Stability during fabrication

NACE-compliant chemistry = ultra-low P & S → makes these sheets resistant to SSC and HIC in sour service.

International Standards & Equivalent Grades of SA516 Gr 70 NACE Sheets

Our SA516 Gr 70 NACE Certified Sheets are tested and manufactured as per international codes:

  1. ASTM A516 / ASME SA516 Gr 70 (USA)
  2. EN 10028 P355GH / P295GH (Europe)
  3. IS 2002 Class 2 (India)
  4. BS 1501-224-490B (UK)

With NACE MR0175/MR0103 certification, these sheets are accepted in refineries, sour service units, and offshore projects worldwide.

Thickness Range, Sheet Dimensions & Stock Availability

At Navgraha Steels INC, Mumbai, we maintain ex-stock and ready-to-export SA516 Gr 70 NACE Sheets in:

  1. Thickness: 3 mm to 50 mm
  2. Widths: 1,000 mm to 2,500 mm
  3. Lengths: 2,500 mm to 12,000 mm
  4. Custom Supply: Cut-to-size, CNC machining, bending services

Buyer Tip: Ordering cut-to-size NACE sheets reduces wastage and fabrication downtime in refinery shutdowns.

Heat Treatment Options – Normalized, Quenched & Tempered

Different industries demand different conditions:

  • Normalized (N): Standard supply for refinery & sour service
  • Quenched & Tempered (Q+T): For offshore platforms & petrochemical vessels under high stress
  • As Rolled (AR): Limited supply, used in non-critical service

Refinery auditors generally insist on Normalized NACE sheets for compliance and inspection approval.

Fabrication & Welding Performance – Sheets That Reduce On-Site Risks

Procurement challenge: “Will these sheets crack during welding or fail during forming?”

With Navgraha’s NACE-certified supply, you get:

  • Excellent weldability with SMAW, GTAW, SAW, and GMAW processes
  • Smooth forming & machining performance
  • High toughness retained even at low operating temperatures

This means lower fabrication rejections, faster commissioning, and reduced repair costs.
