ASTM A182 GRADE F1 CARBON-MOLYBDENUM
ASTM A182 Grade F1 Sample MTC Certificate
Access a comprehensive, professionally formatted Material Test Certificate according to EN 10204-2004: 3.1 for ASTM A182 Grade F1 Carbon-Molybdenum (UNS K12822). Inspect the exact documentation your QA and engineering teams will receive with every high-temperature forged alloy steel order.
What's Inside This Grade F1 MTC Certificate
This sample mill test certificate mirrors the rigorous QA documentation package standard for Carbon-Molybdenum high-temperature forged components shipped from our facilities.
- Full Traceability: Certified with TC No.: F1/26-XX and corresponding ASTM A182 specifications.
- Carbon-Molybdenum Chemistry: Detailed breakdowns verifying the classic Carbon (0.15–0.28%) and Molybdenum (0.44–0.65%) composition. The addition of molybdenum provides significantly better high-temperature creep strength than plain carbon steel forgings.
- Verified Heat Treatment: Explicit documentation of the Annealed or Normalized and Tempered process, ensuring the material meets the microstructural toughness requirements for high-pressure applications.
- Mechanical Properties: Comprehensive reporting of Tensile Strength (495.00 MPa), Yield Strength (285.50 MPa), Elongation (28.50%), and Hardness (165, 168, 162 HBW) per standard ASTM A182 F1 requirements.
- Quality Compliance: 100% visual inspection carried out and verified free from defects and radioactive contamination.

Technical FAQs — ASTM A182 Grade F1 MTC
Why is Carbon-Molybdenum steel used instead of plain carbon steel?
The addition of approximately 0.50% Molybdenum to the carbon steel matrix drastically improves the steel's high-temperature strength and creep resistance. While plain carbon steel begins to rapidly lose structural integrity above 400°C, Grade F1 provides reliable, prolonged service at moderately high temperatures in pressure systems.
Why are there no Chromium limits listed on this certificate?
Unlike higher "F" grades (such as F11, F22, or F9), ASTM A182 Grade F1 is strictly a Carbon-Molybdenum alloy, not a Chrome-Moly alloy. While it offers excellent strength, it lacks the chromium required to prevent graphitization at temperatures exceeding 468°C (875°F) for extended periods.
What are the typical applications for F1 forgings?
Grade F1 is commonly specified for forged flanges, fittings, and valves in steam piping, pressure vessels, and industrial boiler systems where operating temperatures are moderately high, yet do not require the advanced oxidation resistance of heavily alloyed chromium steels.
