ASTM A182 F1 is made from forged carbon-molybdenum steel, C-1/2Mo, and does not contain any chromium. Molybdenum improves the strength properties at elevated temperatures when compared to carbon steel and therefore works well where the temperatures are higher than those that would be possible using A105. It works for moderately elevated temperature conditions, but in case of extended use at elevated temperatures, go for F11, F22 or F91 since the carbon-molybdenum steel is susceptible to graphitisation. Available flange types are weld neck, slip on, blind, socket, threaded and lap joint flanges. Solitaire Overseas supplies F1 flanges with EN 10204 3.1 certification and material traceability.

ASTM A182 F1 flanges are forged carbon-molybdenum steel flanges used in elevated-temperature piping, with about 0.5 percent molybdenum and no required chromium.
ASTM A182 F1 is a carbon-molybdenum steel with 0.44 to 0.65 percent molybdenum and no required chromium.
F1 has better creep strength than plain carbon steel at moderately elevated temperatures. For long hot service choose F11 or F22.
ASTM A182 F1 maintains useful mechanical strength at elevated temperatures and is commonly used in steam and process piping.
It offers limited oxidation resistance and is not intended for severe oxidation environments like chromium-containing alloy steels.
ASTM A182 F1 forgings are generally supplied in the normalized and tempered or annealed condition, as specified by the applicable ASTM A182 requirements.
Yes, ASTM A182 F1 flanges can be welded using suitable welding procedures, filler materials and preheating requirements.
The UNS number is K12822 and the Werkstoff number is 1.5415. The matching pipe is A335 P1 and the matching fitting is A234 WP1.
Choose F11 or F22 when the line runs hot for long periods, because carbon-molybdenum steel can graphitise. The design code and temperature decide the grade.
