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. -: Meehanite CR Corrosion Resisting Cast Iron Flange Product Information -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: Meehanite CR Corrosion Resisting Cast Iron Flange Synonyms -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -:

Meehanite CR Corrosion Resisting Cast Iron Product Information -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: ## **Meehanite CR Series: Corrosion-Resisting High-Silicon Cast Iron** --- ### **1. Product Overview** Meehanite CR is a specialized grade of high-silicon ferritic cast iron engineered for exceptional resistance to a wide range of corrosive media, particularly **oxidizing acids**. The "CR" designation stands for **Corrosion Resisting**. This alloy belongs to the family of high-silicon irons (typically containing 14-18% Silicon), which are renowned for forming an extremely stable, adherent, and self-healing silicon dioxide (SiO₂) passive layer on their surface. This layer provides outstanding protection against chemical attack, making CR a cost-effective solution for severe corrosive environments where standard stainless steels may fail. Its primary limitation is brittleness and poor machinability, but for applications where corrosion resistance is paramount and components can be cast to near-net shape, it offers unmatched performance and longevity. --- ### **2. Chemical Composition** The extraordinary corrosion resistance of Meehanite CR is achieved through a unique and tightly controlled high-silicon composition. * **Silicon (Si):** 14.2% - 16.0% (The key alloying element. Forms the protective SiO₂ film.) * **Carbon (C):** 0.6% - 1.0% (Kept low to minimize the formation of graphite, which can disrupt the passive layer and provide pathways for corrosion.) * **Manganese (Mn):** 0.3% - 0.8% * **Chromium (Cr):** Often **4.0% - 5.0%** (A critical addition in many CR grades. Chromium further enhances corrosion resistance, particularly in oxidizing and chloride-containing environments, by contributing to a mixed Cr₂O₃/SiO₂ passive layer. Some grades may have 0.5-1.0% Cr.) * **Molybdenum (Mo):** May be added up to 3.0% in specialized grades to improve resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride solutions. * **Copper (Cu):** Sometimes added in small amounts (<1%) to improve corrosion resistance in certain media, like sulfuric acid. * **Phosphorus (P):** < 0.15% * **Sulfur (S):** < 0.05% **Microstructure:** A hard, brittle, fully **ferritic matrix** with fine graphite flakes (or sometimes a near-white iron structure) and complex intermetallic silicide phases. The high silicon content makes the matrix inherently passive. --- ### **3. Physical & Mechanical Properties** **A.

Components must be **cast to shape**. * **Thermal Shock Resistance:** Poor, due to low thermal conductivity and high brittleness. * **Weldability:** Not weldable by conventional methods. --- ### **4. Product Applications** Meehanite CR is used almost exclusively in aggressive chemical environments where its corrosion resistance outweighs its mechanical limitations. * **Chemical & Petrochemical Processing:** * **Pumps:** Casings, impellers, and wear rings for acid handling. * **Valves:** Plug, ball, and check valve bodies and trim for corrosive service. * **Pipe & Fittings:** Elbows, tees, pipe sections for acid waste lines. * **Pollution Control & Scrubbers:** * **Scrubber Tower Components:** Packing support plates, mist eliminators, spray nozzles. * **Ducting and Dampers** for corrosive fume handling. * **Electroplating & Metal Finishing:** * **Anode Baskets**, heating/cooling coils, tank linings. * **Fertilizer Industry:** Equipment handling sulfuric and phosphoric acids. * **Mining & Hydrometallurgy:** Acid leaching tanks and associated components. * **Pharmaceutical:** Reactor parts for corrosive chemical synthesis. --- ### **5. International & Relevant Standards** Meehanite CR corresponds directly to standardized high-silicon corrosion-resistant cast irons. The most common standards are: * **ASTM A518/A518M - Standard Specification for Corrosion-Resistant High-Silicon Iron Castings** * **Grade 1:** 14.20-14.75% Si * **Grade 2:** 14.50-15.00% Si * **Grade 3:** 14.20-14.75% Si, **3.25-5.00% Cr** (This is the most common specification for Meehanite CR, emphasizing the chromium-enhanced grade). * **ISO 2893:1973 - High silicon cast irons** (This standard has been withdrawn but is still commonly referenced. It defined grades like **Si 14** and **SiCr 14 4**). * **DIN 1695 - High silicon cast iron** (German standard, material designation **G-X 150 SiCr**). * **BS 1591:1975** - (British Standard for high silicon cast iron, now withdrawn but referenced historically). **Note:** Meehanite "CR" is typically supplied to meet the chemical and mechanical requirements of **ASTM A518 Grade 3** or its international equivalents (e.g., DIN G-X 150 SiCr). Due to its specialized nature, it is also commonly supplied against **detailed customer-specific technical data sheets** that define the required corrosion test performance in specific media. -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: Meehanite CR Corrosion Resisting Cast Iron Specification Dimensions Size： Diameter 20-1000 mm Length <6636 mm Size:We can customized as required Standard： Per your request or drawing We can customized as required Properties（Theoretical） Chemical Composition -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: Meehanite CR Corrosion Resisting Cast Iron Properties -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -:
