Product Description
P280GH EN 10222-2 1.0426 P295GH EN 10028-2 1.0481 EN 1092-1 Flange
P280GH is a non-alloy (carbon-manganese) pressure vessel steel primarily used for boilers, pressure vessels, and piping operating at elevated temperatures. Its chemical composition is tightly controlled by standards such as EN 10216-2 and EN 10028-2.
Chemical Composition
Typical chemical composition of P280GH (in % by weight, approximate ranges):
Element Composition Range
Carbon (C)0.18–0.22
Silicon (Si)0.10–0.50
Manganese (Mn)0.80–1.60
Phosphorus (P)≤ 0.025
Sulfur (S)≤ 0.015–0.020
Nitrogen (N)≤ 0.012
Copper (Cu)≤ 0.30
Chromium (Cr)≤ 0.30
Nickel (Ni)≤ 0.30
Molybdenum (Mo)≤ 0.08
Vanadium (V)≤ 0.02
Aluminum (Al, total)≥ 0.020
Key Element Functions
  • Carbon (~0.2%): Provides sufficient strength without making the steel too hard or brittle, which is crucial for pressure components.
  • Manganese (up to ~1.6%): Improves strength and toughness, helps deoxidize the steel, and improves weldability.
  • Silicon (~0.1–0.5%): Deoxidizer and strengthener, enhances resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures.
Material Characteristics
P280GH is classified as a non-alloy quality steel because it does not rely on high levels of alloying elements like chromium, nickel, or molybdenum to obtain its properties. Instead, it's essentially a clean, well-controlled carbon-manganese steel optimized for:
  • Good weldability
  • Adequate strength at medium/high temperatures
  • Good toughness and reliability for pressure service
Important Note: When working on design, fabrication, or material selection, always refer to the exact product standard (e.g., EN 10028-2 for plates or EN 10216-2 for seamless tubes) and check the mill test certificate from your supplier, which will list the actual heat analysis for your specific batch.
In summary, P280GH is a low-alloy, pressure-vessel-grade steel with approximately 0.2% carbon, relatively high manganese content, modest silicon content, and very low phosphorus, sulfur, and residual elements. This composition provides a reliable combination of strength, toughness, and weldability for boiler and pressure applications.
