ASME SA336 F11 CL2 Stationary Tubesheet – Chrome-Moly Alloy Steel Forged Tubesheet for Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers, Pressure Vessels, and High-Temperature Boiler Service
Product Overview
The ASME SA336 F11 CL2 Stationary Tubesheet is a chromium-molybdenum (1.25Cr-0.5Mo) alloy steel forging manufactured in accordance with ASME SA336/SA336M — the Standard Specification for Alloy Steel Forgings for Pressure and High-Temperature Parts. This ferritic heat-resistant steel forging serves as the primary pressure-boundary component in fixed tubesheet shell-and-tube heat exchangers, separating shell-side and tube-side fluid circuits.
The Class 2 heat treatment (normalized and tempered, with a minimum tempering temperature of 620°C / 1150°F) delivers mechanical properties superior to Class 1, enabling thinner, more efficient pressure vessel wall profiles under high-pressure service exceeding 50 bar. The material is specifically engineered for maximum continuous service temperatures up to 595 °C (1100°F).
Thermal Power Generation: High-pressure feedwater heaters in thermal power plants, subject to temperature swings exceeding 150°C
General High-Temperature Pressure Vessel Service: Boilers, reactors, and high-temperature process equipment requiring 1.25Cr-0.5Mo alloy forgings
Engineering Advantages & Customization
Advantages of SA336 F11 CL2 vs. Alternative Tubesheet Materials:
Higher Strength than Class 1: Class 2 heat treatment provides minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa and yield strength of 310 MPa—allowing thinner tubesheet profiles and reduced overall equipment weight under high-pressure service (>50 bar).
Creep Resistance: Maintains mechanical properties at continuous operating temperatures up to 595°C, with proven performance in thermal cycling service.
Hydrogen Attack Resistance: 1.25Cr-0.5Mo composition provides resistance to hydrogen attack and high-temperature hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) corrosion in hydroprocessing environments.
Forged Integrity: SA336 forgings offer superior directional strength and impact toughness compared to plate-rolled alternatives, critical for heavy-section tubesheet applications.
ASME Code Compliance: Full traceability to ASME SA336/SA336M with material test reports (MTR) and third-party inspection available.
Customization Services:
Custom diameters, thicknesses, and drilling patterns per customer tube layout drawings
Single or double-clad overlay options (stainless steel, Inconel, Monel)
Precision CNC drilling to customer-specified tube hole patterns and tolerances
Full documentation package including MTR, NDT reports, heat treatment charts, and dimensional inspection reports
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between ASME SA336 F11 CL2 and ASTM A182 F11 CL2?
Both specifications cover the same 1.25Cr-0.5Mo alloy chemistry. However, SA336/A336 is specifically intended for large forgings for pressure vessels and high-temperature parts, while A182 covers smaller pipe flanges and fittings. For tubesheet applications requiring heavy-section forgings, SA336 is the correct specification.
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature for SA336 F11 CL2 tubesheets?
The maximum continuous service temperature is 595 °C (1100°F). For service above this temperature, creep strength becomes insufficient for long-term operation—engineers should consider upgrading to F22 (2.25Cr-1Mo) or F91 (9Cr-1Mo-V).
