ASTM A350 LF2 low-temperature carbon steel (LTCS) long weld neck flanges are designed for applications in low-temperature environments where maintaining structural integrity and strength is crucial. These flanges are made from ASTM A350 LF2 carbon steel, which provides excellent performance at temperatures as low as -50°F (-45°C). The long weld neck design features an extended, tapered hub that allows for a smooth transition from the pipe to the flange. This design not only distributes stress more evenly, reducing the risk of flange failure, but also provides a robust and leak-proof connection. Long weld neck flanges are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation, where they facilitate secure and reliable connections under demanding conditions.
