How to determine the quality of carbon steel flanges?

2022-05-24


The shape and size of carbon steel flanges are accurate, the processing volume is small, and the cost is low. However, the casting flange will have holes, cracks and impurities, and the internal structure of the casting is poor. It has the advantage that it can have more complex shapes and is low cost to produce. Because the carbon content of ordinary carbon steel flanges is lower than that of cast flanges, it is not easy to rust and has a dense structure. They can withstand shear and tensile forces better and have better mechanical properties than forged flanges. Ordinary carbon steel flanges and cast flanges are difficult to distinguish from appearance alone.

When purchasing carbon steel flanges, they must be selected according to the usage environment. Not just cheap, but premised on it. Flange storage should not be placed directly on the ground. Put some damp pads on the ground and line up the flanges neatly. When placing them, leave a channel between the carbon steel flange and the carbon steel flange. It plays the role of ventilation and also facilitates the transportation of carbon steel flanges. Different materials should be stored and marked separately. The same material, materials of different types and specifications should be stored separately, and the corresponding markings should be stacked neatly to avoid bumps.
