P460NL1

P460NL1 is a low temperature steel for the manufacture of tanks, boilers, pressure vessels and heat exchangers with a wide working temperature range from -40°C to 400°C. It is a non-alloy steel with a minimum yield strength of 460 MPa, although this depends on dimension or thickness and may vary. The "P" in P460NL1 stands for "Pressure", indicating that it is specifically designed for use in pressure vessel applications. The "NL" indicates that the steel has low temperature properties, making it suitable for use in applications where the steel will be exposed to low temperatures. P460NL1 steel is typically used in the oil and gas industry, chemical processing plants and power generation facilities. It is also used in the manufacture of cryogenic vessels, which are designed to store and transport liquid gases at very low temperatures. P460NL1 steel has good weldability and is easy to machine. It is also resistant to brittle fracture, making it a reliable choice for use in low temperature environments.
