Quick Answers
AISI 1018 Threaded Flange – Overview
AISI 1018 is a fine-grained low-carbon steel with superior case-hardening response compared to 1020. Its higher manganese (0.60–0.90%) gives better surface hardness after carburising, making it the preferred grade for precision-machined case-hardened components.
BB Infras stocks AISI 1018 Threaded Flange in rounds, hexagonals and profiles from leading Indian and European mills, regularly supplied to gear manufacturers, machine builders and automotive component suppliers with hardness and impact test reports on request. AISI 1018 Threaded Flange is available in pressure classes 150# to 2500# per ASME B16.5 / B16.47, with raised face (RF), flat face (FF) or ring type joint (RTJ) facing options. Custom bore and custom OD flanges are available on order.

Storage & Handling Guidelines
- Store on wooden dunnage or pipe racks — never directly on concrete to avoid moisture-induced corrosion.
- Stack with appropriate separators; observe safe stack heights to prevent deformation.
- Apply plastic end caps or plugs to all open ends to prevent ingress of moisture, dust and insects.
- Keep material dry and ventilated; store under cover in humid or coastal climates.
- Use nylon slings or padded lifting hooks — never bare wire rope directly on surface.
- For long-term storage (>6 months), re-apply protective oil coating or wrap with VCI (Vapour Corrosion Inhibitor) film.
- Identify items with heat number tags throughout storage for full MTC traceability.
