ASTM A335 Grade 1¼Cr-½Mo P11 Alloy Steel Seamless Pipe for API Standard 560 Fired Heater
ASTM A335 Grade P11 (1¼Cr-½Mo) seamless pipes deliver exceptional high-temperature creep resistance and oxidation stability in fired heaters. Engineered for API 560 compliance, these pipes ensure reliable performance in radiant/convection sections up to 550°C. Ideal for hydrocarbon processing, they combine weldability, stress tolerance, and cost efficiency for critical heater tube service.

Radiant Section Components in Fired Heaters
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| Radiant Tubes | Contain process fluid; absorb direct flame radiation |
| Burners | Generate flames to heat tubes |
| Refractory Lining | Insulates walls/floor, reflects heat toward tubes |
| Tube Supports | Hold tubes in position (e.g., guides, hangers) |
| Shock/Sight Doors | Allow visual inspection and emergency access |
| Header Pipes | Distribute fluid to/from tube banks |
| Crossover Piping | Connect radiant/convection sections |
| Steel Casing | Structural enclosure containing insulation |
| Stack/Damper | Flue gas exit path with draft control (connects to convection section) |
For API 560 fired heaters, ASTM A335 P11 seamless pipes provide a proven solution for demanding radiant/convection environments. Their balanced chromium-molybdenum chemistry offers superior strength, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance. Optimized for longevity and safety in refineries/petrochemical units, P11 pipes are a cost-effective choice for sustained high-temp operation.
