ASTM A105 Carbon Steel Forged Flange


ASTM A105 Carbon Steel is the most common forged material of group of materials under ASME/ANSI B16.5 standard (Pipe flanges and flanged fittings), which is the most common flange standard in the industry on the US influence.

1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers forged carbon steel piping components for ambient- and higher-temperature service in pressure systems. Included flanges, fittings, Valves, and similar parts ordered either to dimensions specified by the purchaser or to dimensional standards such as the MSS, ASME, and API specifications referenced in Section. Forgings made to this specification are limited to a maximum weight of 10000 lb [4540 kg].

Larger forgings may be ordered to Specification A 266/A 266M. Tube sheets and hollow cylindrical forgings for pressure vessel shells are not included within the scope of this specification. Although this specification covers some piping components machined from rolled bar and seamless tubular products, it does not cover raw material produced in these product forms.

1.2 Supplementary requirements are provided for use when additional testing or inspection is desired. These shall apply only when specified individually by the purchaser in the order.

1.3 Specification A 266/A 266M covers other steel forgings and Specifications A 675/A 675M and A 696 cover other steel bars.

1.4 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound units and SI units. However, unless the order specifies the applicable “M” specification designation (SI units), the material shall be furnished to inch-pound units.

1.5 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.

Note 1: The dimensionless designator NPS (nominal pipe size) has been substituted in this standard for such traditional terms as “nominal diameter”, “size”, “and nominal size”.

Element Carbon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Silicon Copper Nickel Chromium Molybdenum Vanadium
Composition, % 0.35 max 0.60-1.05 0.035 max 0.040 max 0.10-0.35 0.40 max (1) 0.40 max (1) 0.30 max (1-2) 0.12 max (1-2) 0.08 max
(1) The sum of copper, nickel, chromium, molybdenum and vanadium shall not exceed 1.00%. (2) The sum of chromium and molybdenum shall not exceed 0.32%. For each reduction of 0.01% below the specified carbon maximum (0.35%), an increase of 0.06% manganese above the specified maximum (1.05%) will be permitted up to a maximum of 1.35%.
