Product Inspection

1. Chemical Composition Inspection

Chemical composition inspection verifies that chromium, nickel, molybdenum, nitrogen and other alloying elements meet the specified duplex or super duplex grade requirements. Testing is performed against the applicable ASTM or customer specification to confirm corrosion-resistant performance. Results are linked to the heat number and recorded in the material test certificate for full traceability.

2. Mechanical Properties Testing

Mechanical testing confirms that the forged flange material achieves the required tensile strength, yield strength, elongation and hardness values for the specified grade. These tests help ensure safe use under pressure and mechanical loading. For critical orders, test reports are reviewed together with heat treatment records to verify compliance with project and standard requirements.

3. Dimensional Inspection

Dimensional inspection checks outside diameter, thickness, bolt circle, bolt hole diameter, flange facing dimensions and thread accuracy against the required standard. Sealing face finish and concentricity are also verified to support leak-tight assembly. This inspection ensures interchangeability with mating components in ASME, EN, DIN, JIS or GB piping systems.

4. PMI Testing and Hydrostatic Testing

PMI testing is used to confirm the alloy grade of each flange or production lot before shipment, which is especially important for duplex and super duplex materials. Hydrostatic or pressure-related verification can be arranged according to project scope and applicable standards. SASA FLANGE also provides EN 10204 3.1 certificate, heat number traceability and supporting inspection documents.
