1,We Manufacturing processes are primarily classified into four types: 1:Forging, 2:Casting, 3:Cutting, 4:Rolling. 2,We can manufacture in accordance with these standards. Standards: GB Series (Chinese Standards), JB Series (Machinery Standards), HG Series (Chemical Industry Standards), ASME B16.5 (American Standards), BS4504 (British Standards), DIN (German Standards), and JIS (Japanese Standards). Internationally, there are two primary systems of pipe flange standards: the European system, represented by the German DIN standards (including those of the former Soviet Union), and the American system, represented by the US ANSI pipe flange standards. Other common standards include: the Chinese Ministry of Machinery Industry standards (JB series), the Ministry of Chemical Industry standards (HG series), the Chinese National Standard *GB/T 9112–9124-2010 Steel Pipe Flanges*, as well as US standards (ASME B16.5), British standards (BS4504), German standards (DIN), Japanese standards (JIS), and marine standards (CBM), among others. The nominal pressure ratings for the PN series are designated by "PN" and comprise the following nine levels: PN2.5, PN6, PN10, PN16, PN25, PN40, PN63, PN100, and PN160. The nominal pressure ratings for the Class series are designated by "Class" and comprise the following six levels: Class150, Class300, Class600, Class900, Class1500, and Class2500.

A flange—also referred to as a flange plate or rim—is a component used to connect shafts to one another, or, more commonly, to join the ends of pipes. Flanges are also utilized at the inlet and outlet ports of equipment to facilitate connections between two devices—for instance, the flange on a speed reducer. A "flange connection" or "flanged joint" refers to a detachable joint assembly comprising three interconnected elements—a flange, a gasket, and bolts—that together form a sealed structural unit. In the context of piping systems, a "pipe flange" specifically denotes a flange used for plumbing within the installation; when applied to equipment, it refers to the inlet or outlet flange of that specific device. Flanges feature a series of holes through which bolts are inserted to securely fasten the two flanges together, while a gasket placed between the flanges ensures a leak-proof seal. Flanges are broadly categorized into three types: threaded (screw-in) flanges, welded flanges, and clamp-type flanges. Flanges are invariably used in pairs; threaded flanges are suitable for low-pressure piping applications, whereas welded flanges are required for systems operating at pressures exceeding 4 kilograms per square centimeter. A sealing gasket is inserted between the two flange plates, which are then firmly secured using bolts. The thickness of a flange—as well as the specifications of the bolts used to fasten it—vary depending on the specific pressure rating required for the application. When connecting equipment such as water pumps or valves to piping systems, the corresponding connection points on these devices are often manufactured in the shape of a matching flange; this method of attachment is also referred to as a "flange connection." Generally, any connecting component that utilizes bolts to join and seal the perimeters of two flat surfaces—such as the joints in ventilation ducts—is termed a "flange"; such components may collectively be classified as "flange-type parts." However, since such a connection often constitutes merely a *portion* of a larger device—for instance, the interface between a flange and a water pump—it would be inappropriate to classify the entire water pump itself as a "flange-type part." Conversely, smaller components—such as valves—that feature such flanged interfaces may indeed be appropriately categorized as "flange-type parts." -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: AISI 11L17 Steel Flange, cold drawn, 19-32 mm (0.75-1.25 in) round Product Information -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: AISI 11L17 Steel Flange, cold drawn, 19-32 mm (0.75-1.25 in) round Synonyms -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -:

Product Overview** **AISI 11L17** is a **lead-treated, free-machining steel** belonging to the "12L14/11L17" family, renowned as one of the most machinable carbon steels available. The "L" denotes the addition of lead (Pb), which acts as an internal lubricant and chip breaker during machining. When supplied in the **cold drawn** condition, the material undergoes a precision forming process that enhances its mechanical properties, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish. This datasheet specifies **cold drawn round bar** in the **19 mm to 32 mm (0.75 in to 1.25 in)** diameter range. This product is engineered for high-speed, high-volume production of intricate components where **superior surface finish, excellent chip control, and extended tool life are paramount**. It is the material of choice for the most demanding machining applications that prioritize production speed over weldability or hot workability. **Key Advantages of Cold Drawn AISI 11L17:** * **Exceptional Machinability:** The combined effect of sulfur, manganese, and lead provides unparalleled chip formation, allowing for very high cutting speeds and feeds, reduced power consumption, and superior surface finishes directly from the machine tool. * **Enhanced Strength & Finish (Cold Drawn):** The cold drawing process increases tensile and yield strength while delivering a bright, smooth, scale-free surface ready for immediate machining or plating. * **Superior Dimensional Consistency:** Offers tight diameter tolerances and excellent straightness, critical for automated screw machines and CNC lathes to minimize setup and ensure part consistency. * **Excellent Chip Control:** Produces small, broken chips that are easy to evacuate, reducing machine downtime and improving safety in high-volume production environments. --- ### **2.

Primary Applications** This material is specified for non-critical, high-volume components where machining cost and speed are the dominant factors. It is **not suitable for heat treatment or high-stress applications**. * **High-Volume Precision Parts:** Electrical connectors, fittings, fasteners, knobs, and screw machine products produced on Swiss-type and multi-spindle automatics. * **Automotive (Non-Structural):** Door lock components, fuel system fittings, sensor housings, and various interior trim brackets. * **Consumer Electronics & Hardware:** Connector bodies, small gears (unhardened), camera parts, and precision hardware. * **Plumbing & General Fittings:** Nuts, bolts, and decorative plumbing fixtures where a good finish for plating is needed. * **General Machined Components:** Any part requiring complex geometry and an excellent as-machined surface finish, with no subsequent heat treatment. --- ### **6. Critical Processing Notes** * **Heat Treatment: NOT RECOMMENDED.** The high sulfur and lead content make it unsuitable for case hardening (carburizing) or through-hardening. Attempts to heat treat will result in poor mechanical properties and potential surface issues. * **Machining: EXCELLENT.** This is its primary purpose. Use sharp tools, positive rake angles, and adequate coolant. Expect dramatically lower cutting forces and superior finishes compared to non-leaded steels. * **Weldability: VERY POOR.** The high sulfur and lead content cause severe hot cracking. **Welding is prohibited** for any structural application. * **Hot Working: NOT SUITABLE.** Lead can cause liquid metal embrittlement (hot shortness) at high temperatures, making forging or hot forming dangerous and impractical. * **Plating/Coating:** Machines to a very fine surface finish ideal for subsequent plating (e.g., nickel, chrome, zinc). Proper cleaning to remove cutting fluids is essential. * **Environmental & Safety:** Contains lead. Standard industrial hygiene practices for handling lead-containing metals must be followed during machining (e.g., proper ventilation, dust collection). Check local regulations for disposal of chips and swarf. --- **Disclaimer:** This information is for technical reference. AISI 11L17 is a specialized material with significant processing limitations.
