ASTM A182F316L high pressure socket weld flange, it has a recessed area (like a shoulder) in the flange bore, this shoulder serves as a guide to set the depth of the pipe that inserted to the flange. Socket welding flange initially designed for high pressure small diameters piping system.

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.

Advantages:

  1. Socket weld flange could replace threaded flange, to minimize the risky of leakage.
  2. No need to beveling before welding.
  3. Welding work outside of the pipe, will not penetrate the pipe bore.
  4. It is recommended for applications where internal welding operations are particularly difficult.
  5. Better fatigue life.
