Frequently Asked Questions
Q What carbon steel grades are available for flanges?
Carbon steel flanges are available in ASTM A105 / A105N, ASTM A350 LF2 / LF3, and ASTM A694 F42 / F46 / F56 / F60 / F65, covering a wide range of pressure and temperature applications.
Q Which stainless steel grades are offered?
Stainless steel options include ASTM A182 F304/304L/304H, 316/316L, 310S, 317, 347, and 904L, as well as duplex and super duplex grades F51, F53, and F44 for high-corrosion environments.
Q What alloy steel grades are available?
Alloy steel flanges are manufactured to ASTM A182 grades F11, F12, F5, F9, F91, and F92, which are commonly used in high-temperature and high-pressure piping systems.
Q What sealing face types are available?
Three sealing face types are available: Raised Face (RF), Flat Face (FF), and Female-Tongue-and-Groove Joint (FTJ). The choice depends on the gasket type and pipeline requirements.
Q What is the difference between ASTM A105 and A105N?
ASTM A105N refers to ASTM A105 material that has been normalized — a heat treatment process that refines the grain structure, improving mechanical properties and toughness, especially for low-temperature service conditions.
Q When should duplex stainless steel grades like F51 or F53 be selected?
Duplex grades such as F51 (2205) and F53 (2507 super duplex) are recommended for applications involving chloride-containing environments, seawater, or aggressive chemical media, where standard austenitic stainless steels may suffer from pitting or stress corrosion cracking.
