Class 600 WN Flange ASME B16.5

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.

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.

orged steel flange is a disc-shaped piece of equipment used to connect a pipe to fittings or valve or other component to form a pipework system. Usually flange has been attached to pipe or tube end to, and then a gasket is inserted in the middle to form a seal. Finally they are joined together with bolts and nuts.

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.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.

The descipton ,specification ,and advantages of a weld neck flange.

Face Type of a WELD NECK flange

Stainless steel flange, also called SS flange, it means the material of flange is stainless steel. Common material standards and Grades are ASTM A182 Grade F304/L and F316/L, with pressure ratings from Class 150, 300, 600 etc and to 2500.

What is a WN Flange?and what about its specification

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.

What is a Weld Neck Flange and its 2 different shapes

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).

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.

A105 WN flange is a carbon steel flange according to ASME B16.5.STD is represents the thickness of the flange.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.Flanges have five face types:RF RTJ FF MF TG.

Slip on flange can be made by forging, steel cutting, casting and etc. Among these manufacturing types, the forging type gains the best quality and also the most common use.

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.

600LB SW flanges can socket with the flanges and then welded with the pipes.Large diameter flanges can be series A and series B.ASME B 16.47 A & B are standard for large diameter flanges.

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. 

Socket Weld Flange contain a shoulder on the flange inside that acts as a guide to set the depth at which the pipe is welded to the flange.

ASTM A182 F304 600LB slip on flanges are very popular type of flanges because of the excellent functions and high pressure.ASME B16.47 Series A & B are American Standard for large dimension flanges.According to ASME B16.47 Series A& B,the smallest size of flanges is 22 in.

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.

150LB threaded flanges are one types of flanges.Other types of flanges are WN,SO,SW,LAPJ,BL.Stainless steel 316L flanges are popular in many corrosive environments because of the excllent corrosion resistance.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

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.

ASME B16. 5 pipe flanges: Weld Neck Flange ( WN),Slip-on Flange (SO), Threaded Flange (THD),Socket Weld Flange (SW),Blind Flange (BL),Lap Joint Flange (LAPJ),Plate flange (PL)

A flange can be defined as a method that helps in connecting pipes, valves, etc., to form a full piping system. There are seven flange classes ranging: #150, #300,#400, #600, #900, #1500 #2500.

The spectacle blind flange is named because its shape resembles the number “8”. One end is a blind and the other end is an iron ring. However, the diameter of the throttling ring is the same as the diameter of the pipe and does not play a throttling role. This design makes the spectacle blind flange uniquely flexible and practical in the pipeline system.

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.

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.
