Liam Steel, located in Manila, Philippines, has earned a solid reputation as a reliable manufacturer and supplier of Low Temperature Carbon Steel LF6 Flanges. They specialize in creating flanges specifically designed for low-temperature settings, ensuring that their products meet the highest industry standards for quality. With a strong emphasis on durability, safety, and performance, Liam Steel’s LF6 flanges are crafted to endure extreme cold without sacrificing strength or integrity. They cater to various industries, including petrochemical, oil and gas, and power generation, providing dependable flange solutions that are tailored for demanding applications, all supported by advanced manufacturing techniques and strict quality control measures.
LF6 flanges are constructed from low carbon steel, enhanced with about 1.5% nickel to improve toughness and prevent brittle fractures in low temperatures. The typical chemical makeup includes a maximum of 0.05% carbon, 1.0% manganese, 0.035% phosphorus, 0.035% sulfur, and approximately 1.5% nickel. On the mechanical side, LF6 flanges boast a minimum yield strength of 250 MPa, tensile strength ranging from 410 to 580 MPa, and impressive impact toughness even at temperatures as low as -50°C. This unique combination guarantees reliable performance in cold and cryogenic applications.
