ASTM A105 Carbon Steel Flanges Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter in USA
ASTM A105 carbon steel flanges are forged pressure-containing components that are in popular service in high temperature and pressure piping. These are manufactured from carbon steel forgings in the form of flanges which are usually delivered according to ASME B16.5 and ASME B16.47 dimensional specifications.
As a manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of ASTM A105 flanges in the USA, USA Piping Solution provides forged carbon steel flanges to refineries, oil and gas pipelines, power plants, petrochemical facilities and industrial piping systems where the requirements are essentially on flange strength, reliability, and dimensional accuracy.
What is ASTM A105 Flange?
ASTM A105 is a material specification that encompasses forged carbon steel flanges, fittings, valves and others that are used to hold pressure in high-temperature and ambient service. The specification is limited to forged products and does not cover raw materials that include round bars, plates or seamless tubular products which are subsequently machined into piping components.
ASTM A105 allows only 10,000 lbs (4,540 kg) as the maximum mass of any individual forging. Forgings that are above this limit fall under ASTM A266 / A266M.

ASTM A105 Carbon Steel Flanges Manufacturing Process
ASTM A105 flanges supplied by us are produced through a controlled forging and machining process to ensure consistent mechanical properties and long service life.
Manufacturing steps include:
- Selection of certified carbon steel billets
- Hot forging using open-die or closed-die forging
- Heat treatment (normalizing as required)
- CNC machining of flange faces and bolt holes
- Dimensional inspection as per ASME standards
- Chemical & mechanical testing
- PMI, hardness testing, and visual inspection
- EN 10204 3.1 Material Test Certificate issuance
This process ensures superior grain structure, strength, and resistance to pressure-related failures.

Heat Treatment of ASTM A105 Flanges
ASTM A105 flanges generally do not require heat treatment, except under specific conditions designed to ensure material stability. Heat treatment becomes mandatory for flanges exceeding Class 300, items over 4" NPS that are Class 300 or higher, and flanges of special design where the design pressure or temperature is unspecified.
Applied Heat Treatment Methods
When the criteria above are met, one of the following heat treatment methods must be applied to the material:
- Annealing: Heating the flange to a specific temperature and cooling it slowly to soften the metal and improve ductility.
- Normalizing: Heating the steel to a critical temperature followed by air cooling to refine the grain structure.
- Normalize and Temper: A two-step process where the material is normalized and then reheated to a lower temperature to increase toughness.
- Normalize and Quench and Temper: A rigorous process involving normalizing, rapid cooling (quenching), and then tempering to achieve specific mechanical properties.
Hardness Requirements
Heat treatment is critical for achieving the required mechanical properties. ASTM A105 flanges must maintain a Brinell hardness (HB) value between 137 and 187. Any flange found to be outside of this mandatory hardness range shall be rejected to ensure the safety and integrity of the piping system.

Request for a QuoteFrequently Asked Questions About ASTM A105 Carbon Steel Flanges
What is the ASTM A105 flange?
ASTM A105 flanges are parts made from forged carbon steel. They are specifically designed for use in pressure systems that operate at normal (ambient) or high temperatures. These flanges are manufactured to meet several international standards, including ASME B16.5, B16.47, and B16.48.
What is the difference between ASTM A106 and ASTM A105?
The primary difference between these two materials is their form and carbon content. ASTM A105 is a forged material used for components like flanges and has a maximum carbon content of 0.35%, which results in higher tensile strength and a better yield point. In contrast, ASTM A106 is a standard for seamless carbon steel pipes with a slightly lower carbon limit of 0.30%, making the pipes more flexible and easier to work with in complex piping layouts.
