ASME B16.48 Spectacle Blind

The specification of ASTM A182 Forged Pipe Fittings includes forged fittings, stainless steel, rolled alloy, forged alloy, pipe flanges as well as high-temperature service. Later then forgings and hot working, it would be cooled down to a certain temperature before heat treatment.

Description of THD flange,what about its specification and advantages.

ASTM A350 LF2 is a low temperature carbon steel material, mainly used to manufacture flanges and other connectors. This material has good low temperature performance and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for use in low or ultra-low temperature environments.

Slip on flange also named as SO flange. SO flanges slip over pipes and are designed to bit slightly bigger on the inside than the pipe. They connect to the pipe through a fillet weld at the flange top and bottom.

SW flange can be used in many applications in piping systems.SW Flanges are forged flanges.Socket weld flange has many classes:150LB, 300LB, 600LB, 900LB, 1500LB, 2500LB.Stainless steel flanges have better functions than other flanges which made from carbon steel or alloy steel.

Flange connection is to fix two pipes, pipe fittings or equipment on a flange first, and then Flange pads are added between the flange plates and fastened together with bolts to complete the connection

Many times a nozzle will be blanked off with a blind flange for pressure tests in a plant, or simply because the customer does not need all the nozzles that were supplied on the tank.

The main structural feature of the stainless steel lap joint flange is the loose connection. It consists of a flange body, a flange nipple and connecting bolts. The flange body and the flange nipple are loose fitting, and this structure allows the pipeline to expand and contract freely within a certain range.

Some information abou SO Flange.

Carbon steel flange, that is, the body material is carbon steel plate or end flange connection. The flanges containing carbon steel are called carbon steel flanges. Common materials are carbon steel ASTM A105 / A105N, ASTM A350 LF2/LF3, ASTM A694 F42 / 46 / 56 / 60 / 65, P235GH, P265GH, P280GH, P355GH. Besides carbon steel flanges, we also supply alloy steel flanges and stainless steel flanges .

Stainless steel flange, also called SS flange, it means the material of flange is stainless steel. Common material standards and Grades are ASTM A182 Grade F304/L and F316/L, with pressure ratings from Class 150, 300, 600 etc and to 2500.

There are Weld Neck Flange ( WN),Slip-on Flange (SO), Threaded Flange (THD),Socket Weld Flange (SW),Blind Flange (BL),Lap Joint Flange (LAPJ),Plate flange (PL). We also supply alloy steel flanges and stainless steel flanges .

150LB threaded flanges are one types of flanges.Other types of flanges are WN,SO,SW,LAPJ,BL.Stainless steel 316L flanges are popular in many corrosive environments because of the excllent corrosion resistance.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

ASME B16.5 SW flange is belong to American Standard for forged flanges,this kind of flange are been used all over the word.Forged flanges are high pressure flanges,the commonly used classes are CL 300,CL 600 for forged flanges.Stainless steel flanges always more expensive than other flanges because of the stainless steel has better functions.

Weld Neck Flanges are a very common type of pipe flanges used in various industrial applications. They have a long tapered hub and are often used for high pressure applications.

TOE means threaded at one end when translated. Thus, we can say that a nipple TOE is a nipple that has one threaded end.
In this case, we have the acronym TBE for “threaded both ends” which means threaded at both ends. In other words, this is the most typical type of nipple as described above for connecting two parts or fittings with female threading.

A105 FF slip on flange is a commonly used pipeline connection element, mainly made of carbon steel, and connected to pipelines or other flanges by flat welding. The structure of the slip on flange is relatively simple.

Class 150 WN flange is the lowest pressure flange in all the flanges,langes also have many pressures:CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.ASTM A105 is the matal standard for forged flanges and fittings.

A flange can be defined as a method that helps in connecting pipes, valves, etc., to form a full piping system. There are six flange classes ranging from #150 to #2500. Governed by B 16.5 standards, the ASME B16. 5 Class 300 Flange provides a pressure capacity of 300Lb.

Stainless steel weld neck flange is a part widely used in pipeline engineering. The diameter and wall thickness of the pipe at the interface end are the same as the pipe to be welded, and the connection of the pipe is realized by welding.

The equal cross is one kind of the pipe cross,  the equal cross means all the 4 ends of the cross are in same diameter.
The reducing cross also is called unequal pipe cross , it is the pipe cross which the four branch ends are not in the same diameters.

The purpose of these is to block off a section of pipe or a nozzle on a vessel that is not used. (A nozzle is typically a pipe coming out of a vessel and is usually flanged so it can be connected to valves or piping). Many times a nozzle will be blanked off with a blind flange for pressure tests in a plant, or simply because the customer does not need all the nozzles that were supplied on the tank.

Equal tee is one type of pipe fittings, also called straight tee which means the branch diameter is same with the main pipe (Run pipe) diameter.

These pipe flanges are attached by inserting the pipe into the socket end and applying fillet weld around the top. This allows for a smooth bore and better flow of the fluid or gas inside of the pipe. The connection with the pipe is done with 1 fillet weld, at the outside of the flange. But before welding, a space must be created between flange or fitting and pipe.
