ASTM A182 F316 Weld Neck Flange

Threaded flange is a non-welded flange that is made by processing the inner hole of the flange into pipe threads and matching with the threaded pipe to achieve connection. The connection method is to match the inner hole of the flange with the thread on the pipe, and then rotate and connect them together.

Class 600 WN flange is a high pressure flange.Flanges have many pressures:CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.ASME B16.5 is the American Standard for flanges.Flanges have five face types:RF RTJ FF MF TG.

Class 300 LAPJ flanges are used with lap joint stub end.The pressures for ASME B16.5 forged flanges including 150LB,300LB,600LB,900LB,1500LB12500LB.

What is a WN Flange?and what about its specification

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.

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.

Flanges are usually welded or screwed. Flanged joints are made by bolting together two flanges with a gasket between them to provide a seal. 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 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.

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.

High pressure flange carbon steel material: ASTM A105 / A105N, ASTM A350 LF2/LF3, ASTM A694 F42 / 46 / 56 / 60 / 65, P235GH, P265GH, P280GH, P355GH

Stainless steel lap joint flange is a flange connection component, which consists of a flange, a flanged short section or a butt welding ring. Among them, the flange is made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance and other properties.

Slip-On flanges are commonly lower in price than weld-neck flange.However, customers should bear in mind that this initial cost saving may be diminished by the additional cost of the two fillet welds required for proper installation.

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

Common material grade for stainless steel flange: ASTM A182 F304/304L/304H, 316/316L, 321, 310S, 317,347,904L， 1.4404, 1.4437.

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.

The ASME B16.5 Weld Neck Flange is a welding-type flange cast or forged integrally with the tapered neck. It is then buttwelded to the piping system. The ASTM A182 SS WNRF Flange is made of austenitic steel consisting of 18% chromium and 8% nickel, and it is this composition that makes the flange strong and highly resistive to corrosion. 

What is a Blind Flange?Where are Blind Flanges Most Commonly Used?

It is generally used in non-corrosive, non-critical, moderate pressure services. Slip on flanges of Class 150 and Class 300 are most commonly seen in utility engineering. Similar to welding neck flange, the slip on flange conforming to ASME B16.5 may generally be furnished with three facing types: raised face (RF), flat face/ full face (FF), or ring type joint (RTJ).

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.

What is a BLIND FLANGE and what about its specification and advantages.

A182 F316‌ lap joint flange uses flanges, steel rings, etc. to put the flange on the pipe end, so that the flange can move on the pipe end. The steel ring or flange is used as a sealing surface, and the flange is used to press them tightly.

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

600LB Silp On (SO) Flange can slip on the pipes and welding with the pipes.Stainless steel flange are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

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.

Slip on flange is also called SO flange.This flange can slip onto the pipes and welded with the pipes.Shanghai Zhucheng is a forged flanges supplier who supply high quality flanges for years.

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.

A234 WPB blind flange is a type of flange widely used in pipeline systems. A234 is the standard number of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and WPB indicates that this material is a carbon steel pipeline component for medium and low temperatures.
