ASME B16.5 Stainless Steel Flange F304 Slip On Flange

Steel Flange Fittings 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.

ASME B 16.5 2 inch socket weld (SW) flanges are used for small size and high pressure pipe systems.Stainless steel flanges are more expensive than carbon steel flanges because of the better functions.The pressures could be chosen:CL150,CL300,CL600,CL900,CL1500,CL2500.

A weld neck flange is a type of flange that connects, seals, and changes the direction of a pipe in a pipe system by butt-welding the flange to the pipe. The neck of the weld neck  flange matches the outer diameter of the pipe, providing a good welding interface during welding to ensure the strength and tightness of the connection.

What is a weld neck flange and what about its dimensions?

ASTM A182 F316 Threaded Flange is a flange manufactured according to A182 standard, and its connection method is threaded connection. It is a commonly used connector in pipeline systems, used to connect pipelines, valves, pumps and other equipment, so that fluids can be smoothly transmitted within the system.

The slip-on flange is a simple and excellent alternative to a weld neck as it does not have a weld bevel, and therefore allows the pipe to be adjusted in length relative to its position of the flange. The bore of the slip on will give ample amount of space for the matching pipe.

l. Large diameter flat welding flange has less high-pressure suitability compared to its weld neck counterpart. The basic ring style is suitable for the occasion of low pressure. The butt weld category of the flange is known as a weld neck flange. It suits the occasion of high temperature and pressure as defined in the ASME B16.47 code. Large diameter flanges are widely popularized and used in the sewage treatment industry, wind power industry, chemical industry, and machinery industry.

P280GH weld neck flange refers to a flange connection method that uses P280GH material as the base material and forms one or more layers of P280GH material welding layers on the flange surface through the butt welding process to improve the flange’s high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance and corrosion resistance.

All flanges are round disks with holes for bolts around the rim, but the commonalities end there. a projecting flat rim used for strengthening or attachment.

All flanges are round disks with holes for bolts around the rim, but the commonalities end there. a projecting flat rim used for strengthening or attachment.

Flange connection is an important connection method in pipeline construction. A flange is a category of gasket made to fix two sections of pipe together, or act as a removable plug at the end of a single pipe.

It is used to insert the pipe into the inner hole of flange, as the flange inner diameter is little bigger than the pipe’s outer diameter, pipe and flange could be connected by lap welding at the top and bottom of the flange. The slip-on flange is a simple and excellent alternative to a weld neck as it does not have a weld bevel, and therefore allows the pipe to be adjusted in length relative to its position of the flange.

A182 F304 forged flanges are stainless steeel flanges,ASME B16.5 SW flanges are socket weld flanges following American Standard specifications.

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.

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 316L LAPJ flange has great anti-corrosive function,it always used with lap joint stub end of same material.ASME B 16.5 forged flange have soem pressures:CL150,CL300,CL600,CL900,CL1500,CL2500.You could find the comparison between LAPJ flanges,SO flanges and WN flanges below.

DN150 SW flange is a 6in flange used to socketed with the pipes and then welding on pipes.CL150 forged flange is the lowest pressure flange.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

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

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.

300LB SO flanges is a commonly used pressure of flanges,all flanges could be 150LB,300LB,600LB,900LB,1500LB,2500LB.Stainless steel forged flanges are always used in chemical environment because of the great anti-corrosive function.The most popular stainless steel grades are A182 F304/304L and A182 F316/316L.

Class 600 WN flange is a high pressure flange used in piping system.ASTM A350 LF2 is represents to low temperature carbon steel in American Metal Standard.Flanges have many pressures:CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

150LB slip on flange is the lowest pressure flange in all pressure flanges.ASME B16.5 forged flange is manufacted according to American Standard.Pressures for flanges have 150LB,300LB,600LB,900LB,1500LB,2500LB.

Stainless steel lap joint flange is always used with lap joint stub end (a kind of butt welded fitting).A182 F304 forged flanges have great anti-corrosive function,flanges in this material have longer using years than other materials.

ASTM A105 threaded fittings is commonly used carbon steel grade which is used to manufacture forge piping components such as forged fittings and flange of small diameter piping, generally for piping whose nominal diameter is NPS 2 or smaller.

Standards and application Referred for WN flange and application

300 LB BL flanges are used to close the pipe system,it is similar to plugs and caps.Stainless steel 304 flanges are the most used stainless steel flanges as SS304 have excllent functions and reasonable price.
