ANSI / ASME B16.5 Forged Flange ASTM A182 Grade LF2 Alloy Steel Weld Neck Flange
The ASTM A350 LF2 flange is designed to maintain toughness and impact resistance which is suitable for low-temperature applications down to -50°F (-45°C) and also for higher temperatures. They are commonly used in oil and gas pipelines, chemical processing, and other industries where durability and resistance to low temperatures are essential.
Key Characteristics of LF2 Weld Neck Flanges
- Forgeability: The material is designed to be forged into various shapes, which improves mechanical properties.
- Low-Temperature Toughness: Specifically formulated for resistance to brittle fracture at low temperatures, vital in cryogenic conditions.
- Weldability: LF2 flanges can be welded to other components, making them suitable for a variety of piping configurations and applications.
