EN 10216-2 — ASTM Equivalent

Holding a datasheet that specifies EN 10216-2 (EN)? The valve-grade equivalent, its properties, and certified supply of the matching ASTM grade.

What is the ASTM equivalent of EN 10216-2?

EN 10216-2 is a EN designation corresponding to ASTM A182 F5 (5Cr-0.5Mo Alloy Steel (Grade F5)) 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.

A182 F5

Chrome-Moly / Alloy Steel

5Cr-0.5Mo Alloy Steel (Grade F5) - forged form.

Service temperature-29°C to +593°C
Nominal compositionC ≤ 0.15%, Mn 0.30–0.60%, Si ≤ 0.50%, Cr 4.00–6.00%, Mo 0.45–0.65%, P ≤ 0.040%, S ≤ 0.030%

Typical service: Hydroprocessing unit (HDS/HDT) gate and globe valves - high-temperature H₂+H₂S service; Catalytic reformer (CCR/Platformer) unit valves - high-temperature, high-pressure H₂ service; Vacuum distillation unit (VDU) heater outlet valves - 5Cr for sulphur resistance
