HI EVERYBODY!

I am working in hydropower pipeline.
The steel pipe is of standart API5L X60 but i'm having difficulties with Flanges because the most good manufacturers don't produce flanges with X60 and i want to know some equivalent grades with X60 steel for ordering the flanges.
If anyone can help me because is important for the welding process.

RE: API 5L X60 EQUIVALENT steel grades.

Albanbulku, Actually good manufactures produce flanges in grade F60. For diameters less 18" you can use also ASTM A 105 WN up to 900lbs (Ring Joint) and 18 inches and above, flanges per ASTM A694 grade F60, to match pipe wall thickness.

Rdgs.
