A516 Grade 70 Normalized PVQ (Pressure Vessel Quality)

The PVQ Plate ASTM A516/ASME SA516-70 is a grade intended primarily for service in welded pressure vessels where improved notch toughness is required, It is most often found in moderate and lower temperature applications.

Supplementary testing such as Charpy Impacts, Ultrasonic Examination and Carbon Equivalency are available. All plates over 1-1/2" Thick are required to be normalized.
