Carbon Steel ASTM A694 Flanges
High Yield Carbon Steel Forgings for Pipe Flanges, Fittings, Valves, and Parts for High-Pressure Transmission Service
SSM Provides ASTM A694 Carbon Steel Flanges
SSM supplies high-quality carbon steel ASTM A694 flanges, designed for high-pressure pipeline transmission systems in oil & gas, petrochemical, offshore, and onshore projects.
ASTM A694 flanges are high-yield forged carbon steel flanges engineered for demanding service conditions where standard carbon steel (such as ASTM A105) is not sufficient.
What Are ASTM A694 Flanges?
ASTM A694 flanges are forged carbon steel flanges designed for:
- High-pressure transmission pipelines
- Long-distance oil & gas pipelines
- Offshore platforms
- Compressor and pump stations
- Pipeline valve assemblies
They are widely used in combination with API pipeline steels such as API 5L X52–X70.
ASTM A694 Chemical Composition & Mechanical Properties
ASTM A694 is a strength-grade-based specification (F42–F70) rather than a fixed chemical composition grade. The chemical composition is controlled to ensure strength, toughness, and weldability.
Typical Chemical Composition
| Elemen | Konten (%) |
| Karbon (C) | ≤ 0,30 |
| Mangan (Mn) | 0.60 – 1.60 |
| Silikon (Si) | ≤ 0.60 |
| Fosfor (P) | ≤ 0,030 |
| Belerang (S) | ≤ 0,030 |
| Nikel (Ni) | ≤ 0.40 (when specified) |
| Kromium (Cr) | ≤ 0.30 (when specified) |
| Molibdenum (Mo) | ≤ 0.15 (when specified) |
Key Notes
- ASTM A694 is designed for high yield strength, not corrosion resistance
- It is a low-carbon, micro-alloyed steel system
- Optimized for:
- Kekuatan tinggi
- Good toughness
- Kemampuan Las
- Pipeline service performance
The key feature of ASTM A694 is its yield strength classification (F42–F70).
Mechanical Properties by Grade
| Nilai | Minimum Yield Strength | Minimum Tensile Strength | Typical Pipeline Grade |
| F42 | 290 MPa (42 ksi) | 415 MPa (60 ksi) | API 5L X42 |
| F46 | 315 MPa (46 ksi) | 435 MPa (63 ksi) | API 5L X46 |
| F52 | 360 MPa (52 ksi) | 455 MPa (66 ksi) | API 5L X52 |
| F56 | 385 MPa (56 ksi) | 490 MPa (71 ksi) | API 5L X56 |
| F60 | 415 MPa (60 ksi) | 520 MPa (75 ksi) | API 5L X60 |
| F65 | Tekanan 450MPa (65ksi) | 535 MPa (78 ksi) | API 5L X65 |
| F70 | 485 MPa (70 ksi) | 570 MPa (83 ksi) | API 5L X70 |

FAQs About ASTM A694 Flanges
Yes, depending on grade and heat treatment, ASTM A694 flanges can be used in low-temperature environments, especially when impact testing requirements are met.
However, for extreme low-temperature service, ASTM A350 LF2 is often preferred.
No. ASTM A694 is a carbon steel material, not stainless steel.
It requires protection such as:
- Painting
- Anti-corrosion coating
- Hot-dip galvanizing (in some cases)
- Proper storage and preservation
ASTM A694 is used for forged components (flanges, fittings), while API 5L is used for line pipe.
They are often used together in pipeline systems.
