LOW ALLOY STEEL

摘要

A low alloy steel subjected to post weld heat treatment, containing, by mass percent, of C: 0.01 to 0.15%, Si: 3% or less, Mn: 3% or less, and Al: 0.08% or less, one or more kinds of elements selected from Ti, V and Nb: the range satisfying Formula (1), and the balance being Fe and impurities, wherein in the impurities, N: 0.01% or less, P: 0.05% or less, S: 0.03% or less, and O: 0.03% or less:
where, the symbol of element in the formula represents the content (mass%) of each element. In the alloy steel, a HAZ subjected to PWHT, especially short-time PWHT, has excellent hydrogen embrittlement resistance in wet hydrogen sulfide environments or the like.
