Overview

Engineering reference data for Cast Iron Flanged Pipe Fittings Pressures in material science and properties.

Key Formulas

Stress

σ=FA\sigma = \frac{F}{A}

Force per unit area.

Strain

ε=ΔLL0\varepsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L_0}

Change in length per original length.

Hooke's Law

σ=Eε\sigma = E \varepsilon

Stress proportional to strain in elastic region.

Thermal Expansion

ΔL=αL0ΔT\Delta L = \alpha L_0 \Delta T

Length change due to temperature.

Notes and Specifications

  1. Material Standard: The data applies to fittings constructed from ASTM A 126 Class B cast iron.
  2. Service Condition: The pressures for the Class 250, 14-24 inch size range (marked with footnote 1)) are for liquid services only (flanges only).
