Choosing the Right Flange Material
Material selection is critical. Wrong choice leads to premature failure, corrosion, and safety incidents.
Flansche aus Kohlenstoffstahl
ASTM A105
Industry workhorse for general service.
- Applications: Oil/gas pipelines, petrochemical, power generation
- Temperature: -20F to 800F
- Tensile: 70,000 psi min
ASTM A350 LF2
Low-temperature with Charpy testing.
- Applications: LNG, cryogenic, cold climate
- Temperature: -50F to 800F
Flansche aus rostfreiem Stahl
304/304L (F304/F304L)
