An ASTM A333 Gr 6 anchor flange is a forged ring welded into a pipeline to fix it to a structure, for use with ASTM A333 Gr 6 pipe. ASTM A333 Gr 6 itself is a pipe or plate specification, so the matching anchor flange is made to ASTM A350 LF2 — which is what we supply for A333 Gr 6 lines. Anchor flanges restrain pipelines against thrust and movement — at pump stations, river crossings and pig traps. They are made to project drawings.

ASTM A333 Gr 6 Anchor Flange: Why A333 Gr 6 for anchor flanges
Anchor flanges restrain pipelines against thrust and movement — at pump stations, river crossings and pig traps. They are made to project drawings. In ASTM A333 Gr 6, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Carbon and low-alloy flanges carry most utility, hydrocarbon and high-temperature service. ASTM A333 Gr 6 is picked for cold-climate and refrigerated piping down to −45 °C. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | LNG & refrigeration — Cold process lines. |
| B16.5 material group | 1.1 — A350 LF2 flanges are impact-tested for low-temperature service. |
| Bolting | ASTM A320 L7 studs with A194 Gr 7L nuts |
| Welding to carbon steel | Matching carbon or low-alloy filler is used; joints to stainless need ER309L |
| Matching filler | E7018-1 / ER80S-Ni1 |
