15Mo3 steel is a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel grade defined under the DIN 17155 standard, specifically designed for pressure vessels operating at elevated temperatures. This material is widely used in the manufacturing of industrial boilers and pressurized steel vessels within the oil, gas, and chemical industries. Thanks to its alloy composition—particularly the presence of chromium and molybdenum—15Mo3 steel offers exceptional resistance to heat and corrosion, making it a reliable choice for high-temperature environments where durability and performance are critical. This article will briefly introduce DIN 17155 15Mo3 alloy steel sheet.

Key Characteristics of 15Mo3 Steel Sheet
High Temperature Resistance: 15Mo3 maintains its mechanical strength and structural integrity even under prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures, making it ideal for components subjected to thermal stress.
Excellent Weldability: It can be easily welded using standard techniques, which simplifies fabrication and repair processes for complex pressure systems.
Good Corrosion Resistance: The chromium and molybdenum content enhances resistance to oxidation and various forms of chemical corrosion, particularly in steam and high-pressure applications.
Stable Mechanical Properties: It offers good tensile strength, creep resistance, and impact toughness, contributing to long service life in demanding environments.
