Weld neck flanges B16.5 ASTM A350 150LB

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.

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 A182 F304 spectacle blind is more often used than carbon steel spectacle blind as its great anti-corrosive function.ASME B16.48 is the standard of spectacle blinds.The two components have different functions in the piping system.

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.

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.

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.

SW flange can be used in many applications in piping systems.SW Flanges are forged flanges.Socket weld flange has many classes:150LB, 300LB, 600LB, 900LB, 1500LB, 2500LB.Stainless steel flanges have better functions than other flanges which made from carbon steel or alloy steel.

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)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Reducing pipe (reducing nipple) is a pipe fitting used for straight-line connection of two pipes with different sizes to realize pipe diameter reduction. There are concentric reducing joints and eccentric reducing joints

Blind flanges are used to seal the end of piping systems or pressure vessel openings.

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.

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.

Socket weld (SW) flange is a type of forged flanges,these flanges can socket and wedled with pipes,you could find the flanges specifications in the content below.Stainless steel flanges are popular because the stainless steel has great corrosion resistance so that these flanges can used in some corrosive environments.

What is a Socket Weld Flange,what abut its specification and advantages

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.

Class 1500 SO flange Flanges have many pressures:CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.Flanges have five face types:RF RTJ FF MF TG. Slip on flanges can slip on the pipes and welding with the pipes.

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.

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.

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.

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.

300 LB BL flanges are used to close the pipe system,it is similar to plugs and caps.Stainless steel 304 flanges are the most used stainless steel flanges as SS304 have excllent functions and reasonable price.

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.

Weld Neck Flanges are a very common type of pipe flanges used in various industrial applications. They have a long tapered hub and are often used for high pressure applications.

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.
