The manufacturing process of ASTM A182 F5 alloy flange includes forging and rolling processes, which ensure the shape and dimensional accuracy of the flange. In terms of heat treatment, ASTM A182 F5 alloy flanges usually require annealing or normalizing and tempering treatment to improve their mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Annealing: The temperature is usually not lower than 955 ° C, and then the furnace is cooled; Normalization: The temperature should not be lower than 955 ° C, followed by air cooling and tempering treatment (temperature should not be lower than 675 ° C).
Application:
- Petrochemical industry: In the process of petroleum refining and chemical production, high-temperature and high-pressure pipeline systems need to be able to withstand extreme working conditions. ASTM A182 F5 alloy flanges are commonly used to connect these piping systems due to their excellent high-temperature performance and corrosion resistance, ensuring stable operation of the system.
