1、Designation: A707/A707M 14Standard Specification forForged Carbon and Alloy Steel Flanges for Low-Temperature Service1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A707/A707M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, t
2、he year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers forged carbon and alloy steelflanges intended primarily for petroleum and gas pi
3、pelines inareas subject to low ambient temperatures. Included are flangesto specified dimensions or to dimensional standards such asthose MSS, ASME, and API specifications that are referencedin Section 2.1.2 Supplementary requirements are provided for use whenadditional requirements are desired. The
4、se shall apply onlywhen specified individually by the purchaser in the order.1.3 Eight grades, four yield-strength classes, and threedifferent notch toughness levels are included.1.4 The availability of a particular size of flange of aspecific grade and class is limited only by the capability of the
5、composition to meet the specified mechanical property require-ments. However, current practice normally limits the follow-ing:(a) Grade L1 to Classes 1 and 2,(b) Grade L2 to Classes 1, 2, and 3,(c) Grade L3 to Classes 1, 2, and 3,(d) Grade L4 to Classes 1, 2, and 3,(e) Grade L7 to Classes 1 and 2, a
6、nd(f) Grades L5, L6, and L8 are generally available in anyclass.1.5 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound unitsand in SI units. However, unless the order specifies theapplicable “M” specification designation (SI units), the mate-rial shall be furnished to inch-pound units.1.6 The values
7、 stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems
