ASTM A350 LF2 Class 1 Girth Flanges are forged carbon/low-alloy steel fittings designed for low-temperature service down
to -46°C (-50°F). These flanges meet stringent impact toughness requirements (Charpy V-notch testing) for cryogenic
applications in pipelines, LNG plants, and offshore systems. Manufactured in compliance with ASME B16.5 dimensional
standards, they ensure leak-proof connections in high-pressure environments.
The chemical composition of ASTM A350 LF2 CL1 ensures optimal low-temperature performance and weldability:

| Carbon (C) | 0.30% | Strength & Hardness |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.60-1.35% | Toughness Enhancer |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.035% | Weldability Control |
| Sulfur (S) | 0.040% | Machinability |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.15-0.30% | Deoxidizer |
| Nickel (Ni) | 0.40% Max | Low-Temp Toughness |
