These fittings are also called as corrosion cracking fittings. And due to the superior properties of the carbon steel grade fabricating them is easy. These are demanding products in a wide range of industries due to their superior chemical, mechanical, and physical properties. This grade of steel can be serviced at an ambient and higher temperature. For example, they are good for use in pressure systems. These carbon, silicon, and low manganese fittings are useful in non-critical applications. Refrigeration is a good example of where the working temperature is constant. These are vital components used in the hydrocarbon processing, marine engineering, chemical processing, heat exchangers, petrochemical plants, valves manufacturing, nuclear power projects, oil and gas, pump manufacturing and more.
The CS A105 Forged Fittings are great to use in these industries because of their great resistance properties. They make them work under stress conditions and corrosive environments. They can resist erosion-corrosion, fatigue, stress corrosion cracking, carbide precipitation formation thus protect the fittings from suffering the intergranular corrosion. Their uniform structure makes them suitable to work in power and steam systems. The forged fittings are heat-treated and normalized. Also, they show characteristics like outstanding resistance to corrosion, good ductility, and higher strength.
