Grade A-1 and Grade C superheater tubes are made of seamless medium-carbon steel as per ASTM A210 / ASME SA210 specification. These tubes are specifically engineered for use in superheaters and reheaters in steam boilers, where they must withstand high pressure, elevated temperatures, and continuous thermal cycling.
| Standard | ASTM A210 / ASME SA210 |
| Grades | A-1 and C |
| Form | Seamless |
| Manufacturing Process | Cold Drawn |
| Surface Finish | Bare, oiled, or varnished |

High Strength at Elevated Temperature: Grade C offers higher tensile and yield strength than Grade A-1, suitable for higher steam pressure applications.
Excellent Pressure Resistance: Designed for high-pressure steam superheater systems.
Good Creep Resistance: Maintains structural integrity under prolonged exposure to heat.
Reliable Heat Transfer: Smooth inner surface for optimal thermal efficiency.
Weldability and Machinability: Easily welded and fabricated with proper preheating.

| C | ≥485 | ≥275 | ≥30 |
ASTM A210 Grade A-1: Standard medium-carbon steel with balanced strength and ductility, used for general superheater tube applications.
ASTM A210 Grade C: Higher carbon content for improved strength, designed for higher-pressure and higher-temperature service.
Boiler Superheater Tubes: For converting saturated steam into superheated steam.
Reheater Tubes: For reheating steam between turbine stages in power plants.
Economizer Tubes: Used in some designs for heat recovery systems.
Steam Generator Tubing: In petrochemical, refinery, and industrial boilers.
Process Heaters: High-temperature heat exchange systems.
Possible alternatives include ASTM A192 (for lower-pressure service), DIN 17175 St35.8 / St45.8, EN 10216-2 P235GH / P265GH, GB 5310 (20G, 25MnG), and JIS G3461 STB340/STB410.
Reason: These grades have similar mechanical properties, pressure ratings, and temperature resistance, allowing engineers to select alternatives based on local availability, design codes, and cost optimization without compromising performance.
