ASTM A335 P9/ ASME SA335 P9 is Seamless Ferritic Chrome Moly Alloy Pipe used for high-temperature services. P9 Pipe Chrome content at 8.00% to 10.00 %, Moly content 0.90% to 1.10%, Minimum tensile strength 415MPa, minimum yield strength 205Mpa.

ASTM A335 P9 is Chrome Moly Pipe

ASTM A335 / ASME SA335 Pipe named chrome moly pipe as they have a high level of Chromium and Molybdenum.

Chromium will increase oxidation resistance and provides high-temperature strength, along with the better tensile & yield strength and proper hardness at room temperature. When the chromium levels are above 12%, it can be classified as stainless steel.

Molybdenum increases the overall strength, resistance, elasticity, hardenability and overall quality, moly ensures that the material is more resistant to softening, restrains the growth of grains and lessens the chances of embrittlement. It is the single additive that is responsible for the increase in high temperature resistance (to 540-750°C) and it also improves the corrosion resistance to steel.
