The company prides itself on precision engineering and dependability, consistently delivering products that adhere to international standards for strength and durability. With a strong emphasis on customer satisfaction and prompt delivery, Bosega Pipes and Tubes offers cost-effective solutions tailored for industrial and structural applications, ensuring outstanding performance even under moderate pressure and temperature conditions across various sectors, including oil, gas, and chemicals.
SA 285 Grade C Sheets and Plates are crafted from carbon steel, specifically designed for use in moderate and low-temperature pressure vessels. Their typical composition features carbon (up to 0.28%), manganese (0.90–1.30%), phosphorus (≤0.035%), and sulfur (≤0.040%), which together provide excellent weldability and machinability. These plates boast a minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa and a yield strength of 205 MPa, along with impressive ductility and impact resistance. The well-balanced chemical and mechanical properties make SA 285 Grade C an ideal choice for applications that require moderate strength and exceptional formability.

We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
SA 285 Grade C sheets and plates find extensive application in the manufacture of pressure vessels, storage tanks, and boiler construction owing to their high weldability and medium tensile strength. They can be utilized for applications in low- to medium-pressure services in petrochemicals, oil and gas, power generation, and chemical processing industries Plates are used extensively in heat exchangers, industrial containers, and refineries in applications where resistance to internal pressure and durability are a necessity. Their resistance to moderate mechanical stress makes them a good choice for structures. SA 285 Grade C is an economical option for conditions that demandconsistent performance under controlled pressure.
