Introduction
ASTM A182/A182M covers forged or rolled alloy
steel and stainless steel flanges, forged fittings, valves, and parts intended
for high-temperature and high-pressure service. These materials are widely used
in critical applications where strength, corrosion resistance, and durability
are essential.
ASTM A182 flanges are known for their excellent
mechanical properties, resistance to scaling, and ability to perform under
extreme conditions, making them suitable for industries such as oil and gas,
petrochemical, power generation, and chemical processing.
Ladhani Metal Corporation is a manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of ASTM A182/A182M forged steel flanges, offering a wide range of alloy steel and stainless steel grades for industrial piping systems.

Notes (As Provided)
A. All values are maximum unless otherwise stated. Where ellipses (...) appear in this table, there is no requirement and analysis for the element need not be determined or reported.
B. Grade F 2 was formerly assigned to the 1 % chromium, 0.5 % molybdenum grade which is now Grade F 12.
C. The present grade F 5a (0.25 max carbon) previous to 1955 was assigned the identification symbol F 5. Identification symbol F 5 in 1955 was assigned to the 0.15 max carbon grade to be consistent with ASTM specifications for other products such as pipe, tubing, bolting, welding fittings, and the like.
D. Applies to both heat and product analyses.
E .For Grade F22V, rare earth metals (REM) may be added in place of calcium, subject to agreement between the producer and the purchaser. In that case the total amount of REM shall be determined and reported.
F. The ratio of Titanium to Nitrogen shall be ≤ 3.5. Alternatively, in lieu of this ratio limit, Grade F23 shall have a minimum hardness of 275 HV (26 HRC, 258 HBW) in the hardened condition.
H. Grade F XM-27Cb shall have a nickel plus copper content of 0.50 max %. Product analysis tolerance over the maximum specified limit for carbon and nitrogen shall be 0.002 %.
I .Grade F 316Ti shall have a titanium content not less than five times the carbon plus nitrogen content and not more than 0.70 %.
J. Grade F 321 shall have a titanium content of not less than five times the carbon content and not more than 0.70 %.
K. Grade F 321H shall have a titanium content of not less than four times the carbon content and not more than 0.70 %.
L. Grades F 347 and F 348 shall have a columbium content of not less than ten times the carbon content and not more than 1.10 %.
M. Grades F 347H and F 348H shall have a columbium content of not less than eight times the carbon content and not more than 1.10 %.
N. Grade F347LN shall have a columbium content of not less than 15 times the carbon content.
O. %Cr + 3.3 × %Mo + 16 × %N = 40 min.
