SS400 Lap Joint Flange – Overview
SS400 is Japan's most common structural steel, broadly equivalent to ASTM A36 and S235JR. It is the dominant mild steel grade in Asian markets for beams, plates, pipes and fabrications, with wide availability from Japanese and Korean mills.
BB Infras sources SS400 Lap Joint Flange from approved European, Japanese and domestic mills for heavy engineering fabricators, shipbuilders and infrastructure contractors, with full EN/ASTM mill certification and dimensional compliance reports. SS400 Lap Joint 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.

What pressure classes are available for SS400 Lap Joint Flange?
SS400 Lap Joint Flange is available in 150#, 300#, 600#, 900#, 1500# and 2500# per ASME B16.5. For NPS > 24", ASME B16.47 Series A/B applies.
What facing options are available?
Available facings: Raised Face (RF), Flat Face (FF) and Ring Type Joint (RTJ). RF is the most common for general service.
What is the tensile and yield strength of SS400?
Per JIS G3101 SS400: minimum tensile is 400–510 MPa and minimum yield is 245 MPa (t ≤ 16 mm). Forging heat treatment normalises the material to achieve these values.
Do SS400 flanges need PWHT after welding?
PWHT requirements depend on wall thickness and service per ASME B31.3 Section 331. For carbon steel flanges, PWHT typically applies for wall thickness above 19 mm or as specified by the engineer.
