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 1211 Steel Flange, cold drawn, 19-38 mm round Product Information -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: AISI 1211 Steel Flange, cold drawn, 19-38 mm round Synonyms -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -:

Critical Considerations & Limitations** * **Weldability:** **UNSUITABLE FOR FUSION WELDING.** The high sulfur and phosphorus content cause severe **hot cracking** and weld embrittlement. Joining must be mechanical (threads, press fits, etc.). * **Anisotropy:** Mechanical properties are highly directional. Transverse ductility and impact strength are very poor due to the alignment of MnS inclusions. Not for parts subject to significant transverse stresses. * **Stress Relief:** For parts undergoing heavy, asymmetric machining, stress relieving prior to final machining may be necessary to prevent distortion caused by residual stresses from cold drawing. * **Not for Dynamic or High-Stress Loads:** Should not be used for critical structural components, shock load applications, or parts subject to fatigue. * **Comparison to Hot-Rolled 1211:** Offers better surface finish, tighter tolerances, higher strength, and improved straightness. It is the premium, ready-for-precision-machining form. * **Comparison to 1212 CD:** Very similar. 1211 may offer a slight machinability edge in some operations due to higher P, but 1212 is more widely available and often considered the standard. **Disclaimer:** This material is a manufacturing-oriented steel. Selection must be based on its exceptional machinability and precision, with full awareness of its limitations in weldability, transverse ductility, and load-bearing capacity. -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: AISI 1211 Steel, cold drawn, 19-38 mm round Specification Dimensions Size： Diameter 20-1000 mm Length <5003 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. -: AISI 1211 Steel, cold drawn, 19-38 mm round Properties -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -:
