ASTM A213 T22 Chrome Moly Seamless Tube (2.25Cr-1Mo)

ASME SA213 Grade T22 alloy steel boiler, superheater and heat-exchanger tubing


ASTM A213 T22 alloy steel seamless tubes for superheater and reheater service

Savoy Piping Inc. supplies ASTM A213 T22 / ASME SA213 Grade T22 seamless chrome moly tubes — the 2.25Cr-1Mo grade that remains a workhorse for hotter boiler, superheater and reheater tubing in subcritical power plants and many high-temperature process heaters.

T22 is the tube grade teams reach for when T11 is no longer comfortable on metal temperature or oxidation/creep demand, but the design has not yet moved into CSEF 9Cr territory (T91). Think hotter superheater / reheater banks and high-temperature exchanger tubes.

Procurement reality: correct heat treatment, OD/wall accuracy, hardness control, and clean MTC chemistry keep T22 packages moving through inspection. We support EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certificates, optional IBR Form III-C, and third-party inspection.

Related grades: T11, T5, T9, T91, and matching pipe ASTM A335 P22.

What is ASTM A213 T22 tube?

ASTM A213 / ASME SA213 Grade T22 is seamless ferritic alloy-steel tubing with approximately 2.25% chromium and 1% molybdenum. Extra chromium versus T11 improves oxidation resistance; higher molybdenum supports elevated-temperature strength in steam and process service.

T22 is the tube counterpart to A335 P22 pipe. It sits above T11 for temperature capability and below CSEF T91 used in supercritical / advanced steam designs.

Typical applications of ASTM A213 T22 tube

  • Superheater and reheater tubes in subcritical thermal power plants
  • High-temperature boiler sections where 2.25Cr-1Mo is classed
  • HRSG hot-section tubing (project-dependent)
  • Petrochemical / refinery high-temperature heater tubes
  • Matched Cr-Mo systems with A335 P22 headers and piping

T22 vs T11 vs T91 — quick buyer guidance

Choose T22 when steam or process metal temperatures push beyond comfortable T11 duty and the design still uses conventional 2.25Cr-1Mo. Stay with T11 for many waterwall / economiser / cooler sections. Move to T91 for creep-strength-enhanced supercritical steam tubes. Matching pipe: A335 P22.

Frequently asked questions — ASTM A213 T22

What is ASTM A213 T22 used for?

ASTM A213 T22 (2.25Cr-1Mo) seamless tubes are commonly used for superheater, reheater and other high-temperature boiler or process heater tubes where higher Cr-Mo performance than T11 is required.

T11 or T22 — how do I decide?

T22 has higher chromium and molybdenum than T11, so it generally performs better as temperature and creep/oxidation demand rise. Many boilers use T11 in cooler sections and T22 in hotter superheater/reheater banks. Follow the approved material class.

Is ASME SA213 T22 required for IBR jobs?

For Indian boiler installations under IBR, purchasers often specify ASME SA213 Grade T22 with Form III-C certification. Confirm the documentation package before ordering.

How does T22 relate to P22 pipe?

Both are ~2.25Cr-1Mo chrome moly products. A213 T22 is tube for boilers/heat exchangers; A335 P22 is seamless pipe for high-temperature piping systems. They are frequently specified together in the same plant.
