forged alloy flange A182 F9 plate flange
The carbon content in the Sa182 F9 flange is lower, so the weldability of this alloy is much better. Generally, higher carbon content in alloys promotes intergranular corrosion, especially during high heat treatments such as welding.
These alloy steel flanges provide exceptional strength and durability to the plate. Our flanges offer the benefits of structure, performance, excellent corrosion resistance, and less maintenance. At the same time, using alloy steel produces good results compared to most carbon steels. Unlike carbon steel, alloy steel has a higher element content, which results in better mechanical properties. Manufacturers are able to produce two types of alloy steels – low alloy steel and high alloy steel.
