Advanced Material Specifications
Our flanges are produced from high-grade cast steel materials engineered for specific service conditions:

• Carbon Steel (WCB, WCC, LCB): Delivering excellent tensile strength and impact resistance for general service applications

• Low Temperature Steel (LCC, LC3): Maintaining toughness and ductility in cryogenic environments down to -46°C

• Stainless Steel (CF8, CF8M, CF3): Providing superior corrosion resistance for chemical and marine applications

• Alloy Steel (WC6, WC9, C5): Offering enhanced high-temperature strength and creep resistance

These materials comply with ASTM A216, A351, A352, and A217 specifications, ensuring consistent mechanical properties and chemical composition.
