[Saver2008]

Hi!

I´m searching if it is possible to get plates in SA 516 GR. 70N with HIC?

Thank you

Rolander

Saver2008, yes it is, but rather than take my word for it, why not check with a supplier?

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand

Why would you want to buy plates with HIC in them? Do you mean that wish to purchase plates that have been manufactured and tested for HIC resistance? If the latter, you have already been given a few leads; you might also like to try Dillinger:

Thus, the answer to your assumed question is: yes, it is possible

Note there is a difference in qualifying steel with NACE testing and making the steel deliberately for HIC resistance (as Dillinger offers). The difference is in the steelmaking practice.

"If you don't have time to do the job right the first time, when are you going to find time to repair it?"

 

[SJones]

Absolutely. The former, where the steel has not been designed specifically to pass a HIC test and fortuitously passes such a test, has become known as "pseudo-HIC resistant."
