For comprehensive pressure vessel size information, refer to www.xlerplate.com.au or download the XLERPLATE Size Schedules
The revised grades have been introduced to the XLERPLATE steel custom
range. Revised grades in the XLERPLATE steel standard range will be
introduced in November December 2010.
The product dimensions in the 2008 version on the Standard will not differ
substantially from those available in the 1995 version. Refer XLERPLATE Size
Schedules.
The grades in both versions of the Standard will be very similar however, there
will be slight differences in mechanical and chemical properties. Details can be
obtained by referencing the Standard or by contacting BlueScope Steel Direct.
When ordering grades from the 1995 version of the Standard, no changes are
required. However, grades/sizes ordered from the 2008 version of the Standard
will have to be placed manually the first time you place an order.
As the grade designations are changing in the 2008 version of the Standard,
you will need to order by new grade names. Please discuss with XLERPLATE
Customer Service. Orders for grades from the 1995 version of the Standard will
not have to be changed.
