622 Grade 31 — ASTM Equivalent

Holding a datasheet that specifies 622 Grade 31 (BS 1504)? The valve-grade equivalent, its properties, and certified supply of the matching ASTM grade.

What is the ASTM equivalent of 622 Grade 31?

622 Grade 31 is a BS 1504 designation corresponding to ASTM A217 WC9 (Chrome-Moly WC9 (2.25Cr-1Mo)) for industrial valve service. The full grade data is below - equivalence is by nominal chemistry and mechanical class, so confirm composition and heat-treat condition against the governing standard before substituting in critical service.

A217 WC9
