KS · KS D3573
Family of chrome-molybdenum alloy steel pipes (roughly 1 to 2.25% Cr, 0.45 to 1.1% Mo) intended for high-temperature circuits (superheated steam, refinery reactors and lines, hydrocracking units), typically between 450°C and 600°C depending on Cr-Mo content. US reference: ASTM A335 P11 (1.25Cr-0.5Mo) and P22 (2.25Cr-1Mo), with equivalents in Europe (EN 10216-2), Japan (JIS G3458) and South Korea (KS D3573).

Note: KS D3573 is structurally harmonized with JIS G3458. A consulted ASTM/KS-JIS/DIN cross-reference table explicitly lists SPA23/STPA23 as the direct equivalent of P11 (ASTM) and of 13CrMo4-4 (the old DIN name for 13CrMo4-5). The composition and mechanical property values above are aligned with STPA23's via standard harmonization; we found no public data sheet giving independent numeric KS D3573 values, hence moderate confidence despite the designation correspondence being confirmed by two cross-referenced sources.
Values compiled from public sources for guidance only — always verify against the official standard before use in design or fabrication.
