Does anyone here know the modern equivalent of this grade? Our supplier doesn't know and I've googled it to death without luck! It's for a turbine exhaust duct and the drawing is early-mid 70's.
I can find ref to obsolete BS1501-151. The grades listed are 360, 400, 430 and so on to reflect the min allowed UTS. These are all just plain low carbon steel plate.

Neither should your protection
Thanks for your reply. I got an email from a friend who found it in an old book. It seems that 23A comes from an older/original revision of 1501-151. It has a UTS of 360/400.
The data sheet I got is dated 1964.
