Face Type of a WELD NECK flange

What is a Blind Flange,what about its specification and its advantages

Steel Pipe Elbow is the most common pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipeline. It plays a important role in the piping system.

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.

300LB Stainless Steel Flange is always be chosen because of the excellent anti-corrosive function,SS316 is one of commonly used grade for stainless steel.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

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.

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.

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 smooth transition between the flange and the hub combined with the strength of the butt weld joint, allows the flange to be used in extreme conditions of cyclic loading, bending and temperature fluctuations.

Usage of a weld neck 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. The bore of the slip on will give ample amount of space for the matching pipe.

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.

Slip ons in higher pressure classes are often made with the height of a lap joint for a better connection. If the hub height is not a concern and a lap joint is not readily available, customers will sometimes opt for a slip on made to a lap joint style with a machined hub.

ASTM A105 Forged Fittings 300# WN Flange
Size Range: 1/2″ – 48″/ DN15 – DN1200
Rressure rating: Class 150, 300, 600, 900, 1500, 2500lb

150 LB blind flange is a flange similar to plug.BL flanges are used to close the pipe system.ASTM A105 forged flange is carbon steel flange in American Matel Standard.

Threaded Flanges are also known as screwed flange, and it is having a thread inside the flange bore which fits on the pipe with matching male thread on the pipe.

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.

What is a WN Flange?and what about its specification

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(WN) Flange and what about its specification and advantages.

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.

What is a weld neck flange and its specification?

A weld neck flange consists of a circular fitting with a protruding rim around the circumference. Generally machined from a forging, these flanges are typically butt welded to a pipe. The rim has numerous holes drilled into it that enables the flanged to be attached to a bolted flange.

Forged Steel Flange 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.
