What is ASTM A182?
ASTM A182 is a Specification for Forged or Rolled Alloy and Stainless Steel Pipe Flanges, Forged Fittings, and Valves and Parts for High-Temperature Service.Category
Corrosion-Resisting and Heat-Resisting SteelsScope
This specification covers forged low alloy and stainless steel piping components for use in pressure systems. Included are flanges, fittings, valves, and similar parts.Ok let's start with ASTM A182 chemical composition.
Chemical Composition
Grade F22 Class 1
C
0.05 - 0.15Mn
0.30 - 0.60P max.
0.040S max.
0.040Si max
0.50Cr
2.00 - 2.50Mo
0.87 - 1.13Learn more about chemical composition.
Now it's the mechanical properties turn:

Impact Requirements
Grade F 3V
54J avg 48J minLearn more about impact testing (charpy v notch).
Other properties:
Density
7480 - 8000 kg/m3 (around 7.9 g/cm3 or 0.285 lb/in3).Learn more about density.
Elastic Modulus
180 GPa (26107 ksi) - 210GPa (30458 ksi).Learn more about the Elastic Modulus.
Poisson's Ratio
Usually around 0.26 – 0.31.Learn more about the poisson ratio.
Allowable Stress
Depends on the project (And its factor of safety).Learn more about the what is allowable stress.
My Material's Rank
While engineers will often look for the cheapest material they can use, I took a different approach to material's selection to help newbie students.I ranked materials according to their yield strengths and ASTM A182 currently ranks 105 in my yield strength index. This means there are other 104 materials that are more resistant.
Note: I've analysed 134 materials in order to create an yield strength index. Check my astm material's comparison post for more details.

Citation
When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. ASTM A182 Properties (Chem., Mech. & Rankings). Materials Blog. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>
Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
