Yes, there are unique concerns about handling and storing stainless steel 348H flanges, such as safeguarding them from contamination and damage during shipping and storage. Flanges should be cautiously handled to avoid scratches or dents that might jeopardize their structural integrity. Furthermore, maintaining them in a clean, dry environment away from corrosive chemicals and moisture helps to preserve their surface quality and corrosion resistance.

Because of its outstanding corrosion resistance and high-temperature performance, Stainless Steel 348H Flanges are suitable for use in LNG applications. LNG settings necessitate materials that can survive severe temperatures and cryogenic fluid exposure; therefore, Stainless Steel 348H is an excellent choice for LNG processing facilities, storage tanks, and transportation systems.

When cutting equipment and procedures are used correctly, stainless steel 348H flanges are very machinable. However, the high chromium and nickel concentrations tend to work harden fast, necessitating frequent tool adjustments and slower cutting rates. Carbide tooling is frequently suggested for cutting Stainless Steel 348H to improve results and extend tool life.
