Manufacturer Of A105 Carbon Steel Plate Flange ASTM A105 Carbon Steel Flanges
Carbon steel may include alloy steels in case it is not used as stainless steel.
For high-quality, cost-efficient flanges, HT PIPE manufactures flanges from carbon steel. Carbon steel is a steel whose primary alloying element is carbon. Steel is considered carbon steel when there is no minimum requirement for chromium, cobalt, molybenum, nickel, titanium, tungsten or other alloying elements. Through heat treatment, carbon steel can be made harder and stronger. These hardness and strength measurements are determined by the carbon content – the higher the carbon content, the harder and stronger the steel.
While heat treatment increases the strength and hardness properties of carbon steel, it means reduced weldability as well. Unlike stainless steel, carbon steel is not resistant to corrosion, rust or water stain. Carbon steel flanges are ideal for situations in which corrosion and rust are not a major factor.
