Abstract
System integrity of a flanged connection requires that no leakages occur. Metallic flanges and their joining is of great importance when it comes to avoiding leakages from hydrocarbon lines. The American standard ASTM A182 demands that flanges must be forged to shape, thereby excluding other manufacturing methods. Mechanical properties of duplex stainless steel bars have been examined by doing tensile and charpy tests. A finite element model of a typical ASME-flange assembly was made and was used to calculate stress levels in the flange. The measured mechanical properties of the bar, showed that it is suitable for flange use.
