Hi

I was wondering if there is any free information source on the internet where I can find the prices for different grades of steels used in pressure vessel industry? Like A516 Gr. 60 & 70, A240 316L, Duplex 2205, Inconel 625 etc.

Any help will be appreciated.

regards

To get accurate and current pricing you are going to have to contact a supplier as it changes frequently.

It does not have to be very accurate but just to have an idea. Upto six month old prices are also fine.

Its just to be sure that whatever contractor is claiming regarding prices is based on market trend and not just an unusually high price from one supplier only.
 
It can be hard to get good prices if you're not actually regularly buying the product. Small quantities can be a lot higher per pound than large quantities. And prices can change a lot in 6 months.
