Savoy Piping Inc. supplies ASME SA335 Grade P5 / ASTM A335 P5 seamless chrome moly pipe — 5Cr-0.5Mo ferritic alloy-steel pipe for high-temperature service.
On boiler and ASME-code packages, buyers often write SA335 rather than A335, and ask for IBR Form III-C where applicable, plus EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 MTCs. That documentation detail matters as much as the P-grade on the enquiry.
Where SA335 P5 fits: refinery heater transfer lines, hot process piping and elevated-temperature service needing 5Cr oxidation/sulfidation resistance. Chemistry is about 4–6% chromium and 0.45–0.65% molybdenum.
Related grades: SA335 P5, P9, P11, P22, P91. ASTM twin: ASTM A335 P5.
ASME SA335 Grade P5 is the ASME companion to ASTM A335 P5 — seamless ferritic alloy-steel pipe for high-temperature service. Composition is about 4–6% chromium and 0.45–0.65% molybdenum.
Pipe ordered to this grade must be suitable for bending, flanging (vanstoning), similar forming and fusion welding. Final selection depends on design metal temperature, pressure, corrosion environment and fabrication practice.
For Indian boiler work, SA335 wording with Form III-C is often mandatory even when the mill product is dual-certified A335/SA335.

Choose SA335 P5 for many heater/process duties needing 5Cr. Step up to P9 for more severe sulfidation. For power steam headers, P11 / P22 are more common.

Standard Specification for Seamless Carbon Steel Pipe for High-Temperature Service
This specification2 covers nominal wall and minimum wall seamless ferritic alloy-steel pipe intended for high temperature service. Pipe ordered to this specification shall be suitable for bending, flanging (vanstoning), and similar forming operations, and for fusion welding. Selection will depend upon design, service conditions, Mechanical Properties, and high-temperature characteristics.
ASTM A335 Pipe (ASME S/A335, Chorme-Moly) is a seamless ferritic Alloy-Steel Pipe for high temperature service. Pipe ordered to this specification shall be suitable for bending, flanging (vanstoning), and similar forming operations, and for fusion welding. Sometimes referred to as “P Grade”, Chrome Moly Pipe is popular in P-Grades P5, P9, P11, P22, and P91. The most common use of grades P11, P22, and P91 is in the power industry and petro-chemical plants, Grades P5 and P9 are commonly used in refineries.
A335 is often called chrome moly pipe because of the chemical makeup of Molybdenum (Mo) and Chromium (Cr). Molybdenum increases the strength of steel as well as the elastic limit, resistance to wear, impact qualities, and hardenability. Moly increases the resistance to softening, restrains grain growth and makes chromium steel less susceptible to embrittlement. Moly is the most effective single additive that increases high temperature creep strength. It also enhances the corrosion resistance of steel, and inhibits pitting. Chromium (or chrome) is the essential constituent of Stainless Steel. Any steel with 12% or more Chrome is considered stainless. Chrome is virtually irreplaceable in resisting oxidation at elevated temperatures. Chrome raises the tensile, yield, and hardness at room temperatures. The P5 Material Composition chrome moly Alloy Steel Pipe make it ideal for use in power plants, refineries, petro chemical plants, and oil field services where fluids and gases are transported at extremely high temperatures and pressures

| Notes for Bend Test: | For pipe whose diameter exceeds NPS 25 and whose diameter to wall thickness ratio is 7.0 or less shall be subjected to the bend test instead of the flattening test. |
| Other pipe whose diameter equals or exceeds NPS 10 may be given the bend test in place of the flattening test subject to the approval of the purchaser. | |
| The bend test specimens shall be bent at room temperature through 180 without cracking on the outside of the bent portion. | |

ASME SA335 P5 (5Cr-0.5Mo) seamless pipe is used in high-temperature refinery and petrochemical piping where chromium-molybdenum resistance is required beyond carbon steel.
They are companion designations for the same grade family. ASME SA335 Grade P5 is commonly written on boiler and ASME-code packages; ASTM A335 P5 is the ASTM product specification counterpart.
For Indian boiler work under IBR, purchasers often require ASME SA335 with Form III-C in addition to EN 10204 3.1/3.2 MTCs. Confirm documentation before ordering.
P5 covers many heater and hot process duties. P9 (9Cr-1Mo) is selected when higher chromium is justified for more severe oxidation/sulfidation. Follow the project corrosion class.
