ASTM A182 F304 WN Flanges ASME B16.5 Forged Flanges

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.

300LB THD flanges are one types of flanges.Other types of flanges are WN,SO,SW,LAPJ,BL.ASTM A182 F316 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 flange is a flange made accoding to American matal standaed.Class 150 WN flange is the lowest pressure of flange.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

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.

WN flange is a commonly used type of flanges,ASMT A150 forged flange is carbon steel flange according to American Standard.Flanges have many types:WN,SO,SW,THD,LAPJ,BL.

The connection method of A182 F11 socket flange is to insert the pipe into the socket of the flange, and then seal it with welding or use a sealing gasket. This connection method is relatively strong and can adapt to the thermal expansion and contraction of the pipe to a certain extent.

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 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.
The Alloy Steel A182 Threaded Elbow material grade contains ASTM A182 F11 / 12 / 5 / 9 / 91 / 92 / 22.

900LB slip on flange can slip on the pipes and welded with the pipes.Stainless steel flanges are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel flange can used over 50 years.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

What is a Weld Neck Flange and its 2 different shapes

1500 LB SO flanges are belong to high pressure flanges.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.Flange dimension has a very large range to meet different demands.

150LB SO Flange is the lowest pressure flange in flanges.High Pressure Forged Flange have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

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

The bore of the slip on will give ample amount of space for the matching pipe. This allows for enough working space for the welder and fabricator to make the connection.Slip-On flanges are commonly lower in price than weld-neck flange.

Slip on flange, also called SO flange. It’s a kind of flange slides over the pipe with internal design is slightly larger than the pipe. Since the inner diameter of the flange is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the pipe, the SO flange can be directly connected to equipment or pipe by fillet weld at the top and bottom of the flange. It is used to insert the pipe into the inner hole of the flange.

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.

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.

Usage of a weld neck flange

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 A350 LF2 Blind Flange is a common low-temperature carbon steel material, mainly used in the manufacture of low-temperature and high-pressure forged pipe fittings and flanges.

18in CL600 WN flange is belong to large dimension flanges.ASME B16.5 is standard for forged flanges.Forged flanges have important functions in high pressure enverionments.

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

ASME B16. 5 is limited to flanges and flanged fittings made from cast or forged materials, and blind flanges and certain reducing flanges made from cast, forged, or plate materials. Also included in this Standard are requirements and recommendations regarding flange bolting, flange gaskets, and flange joints.

Face Type of a WELD NECK flange

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.

Socket weld flange can socket with the end of pipe,and welding on the pipe.Stainless steel flanges are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.
