Fabricated using superior quality tungsten alloyed low alloy steel (UNS K41650), astm a182 f23 flanges are designed to operate under stress and temperature intensive conditions in power plant boilers, oil refineries, and heavy duty petrochemical facilities. The unique composition of a182 f23 alloy consisting of 1.90 – 2.60% chromium, 1.45 – 1.75% tungsten, together with vanadium, molybdenum, columbium, and boron alloys ensures excellent creep rupture properties, thermal fatigue resistance, and mechanical strength even up to 600°C. Following ASME B16.5 and B16.47 dimensional specifications, we offer complete range of astm a182 f23 flange types including astm a182 f23 weld neck flange, f23 slip on flange, and f23 blind flange within Class 150 – Class 2500 pressures. Supplied in normalized and tempered condition, each sa182 f23 flange meets robust a182 f23 mechanical properties (minimum 510 MPa tensile strength and 400 MPa yield strength) matching international f23 flange equivalent specifications such as UNS K41650, Code Case 2199, and ASME SA182 F23.
Solitaire Overseas is a premier stockist, manufacturer, and exporter of high-precision industrial forgings and alloy piping components based in India. We supply fully certified high-pressure piping solutions to global markets with complete EN 10204 3.1 material test report traceability.

It is a forged 2.25 chromium, 1.6 tungsten steel with vanadium and niobium, made to ASTM A182 for high temperature boiler and HRSG piping.
The forging carries UNS K41650. Do not confuse it with UNS K40712, which belongs to the matching A213 T23 tube and A335 P23 pipe.
The nearest European designation is 7CrWVMoNb9 6, Werkstoff 1.8201. Check the full chemistry and your project code before treating any grade as an exact match.
F23 is the forged flange grade. T23 is seamless tube and P23 is pipe. Boron and nitrogen limits differ, so quote the forging grade for flanges.
F23 adds tungsten, vanadium, niobium and boron to the 2.25 chromium base, which lifts creep strength above F22. F22 is simpler and widely stocked.
A welded joint on F23 normally needs preheat, controlled heat input and PWHT as set by your piping code and qualified welding procedure.
