IBR Compliance Note
Boiler tubes used inside pressure parts in India require IBR certification under the Indian Boiler Regulations, 1950. The prices below include the IBR premium where applicable. All IBR-stamped tubes come with Form III-C documentation.
Per ASME SA192/SA210/SA213, the bands below are indicative boiler-quality seamless tube prices for orders placed in May 2026, covering ASME SA192, SA210 Grade A1, and SA210 Grade C. These grades are the workhorses of Indian power plant boilers, sugar mill installations, and industrial steam generators.
All prices are per kilogram (₹/kg), ex-warehouse Kanpur, exclusive of GST (18%). IBR-stamped tubes carry a 15–25% premium over non-IBR seamless tubes. We source from ISMT (Pune), Jindal SAW, and Maharashtra Seamless. For a firm quote, submit your RFQ.

Understanding the IBR Premium
What Drives the Premium?
IBR-stamped tubes require third-party inspection during manufacturing, additional destructive and non-destructive testing, heat-number traceability, and documentation (Form III-A at the mill, Form III-C with every dispatch). These steps add 15–25% to the base tube cost.
Grade Comparison: SA192 vs SA210
SA192 is a low-carbon grade for low/medium-pressure boilers (up to ~350°C). SA210 offers higher tensile strength and temperature limits — Grade A1 for standard service, Grade C for higher-pressure applications. The grade you need is specified in your boiler's engineering drawings and ASME code calculations.
