Flange

Huitong Special Steel Co.,Ltd is a famous China flange manufacturer and supplier,Website:http://www.htongsteel.com, equipped with a productive factory and company and as a professional flange exporter and seller, we are always welcoming you to buy and wholesale high quality flanges, steel flange, pipe fitting flange, carbon steel flange, stainless steel flanges from our factory. Flanges are generally used when there is a connection to valves, in-line instruments and/or connection to equipment nozzles is required. Flange fittings generally involve pressing two surfaces to be joined tightly together, by means of threaded bolts, wedges, clamps, or other means of applying high compressive forces.[16] Often, a gasket, packing, or an O-ring is installed between the flanges to prevent leakage, but it is sometimes possible to use only a special grease, or nothing at all, if the mating surfaces are precisely formed. Flanges are designed to the following pressure ratings: 150 lb, 300 lb, 400 lb, 600 lb, 900 lb,1500 lb and 2500 lb or 10 Bar, 15Bar, 25Bar, 40Bar, 64Bar, 100Bar and 150Bar. Various types of flanges are available depending upon the type of their constructional features. The following are types of flanges generally used in piping. These flanges are available with different facing like raised face, flat face, ring joint face etc. Flange Type are like below: Slip-on flanges, Blind flanges, Lap joint flanges, Welding neck flanges, Plate flange,Socket welding flanges, Threaded flanges. Slip On flanges are slipped over the pipe and then welded from both inside and outside to provide sufficient strength and prevent leakage. This flange is used instead of weld necks by many users because of its lower cost and also the fact that it requires less accuracy when cutting pipe to length. Blind flanges do not have a bore and are used to shut off a piping system or vassal opening. Its design permits easy access to vassal or piping system for inspection purpose. It can be supplied with or without hubs at the manufacturer's option. Weld neck flanges are designed to be joined to a piping system by butt welding. They are expensive because of its long neck, but is preferred for high stresses to the pipe, reducing stress applications. The neck, or hub, transmits stress concentration at the base of the flange. The gradual transition of thickness from the base of the hub to the wall thickness at the butt weld provides important reinforcement of the flange. Turbulence and erosion are reduced due to the matching bore size of the pipe and flange. Socket Flanges are similar to a slip on flanges in outline, but the bore is counter-bored to accept pipe. The diameter of the remaining bore is same as the inside diameter of the pipe. A fillet weld around the hub of the flange attaches the flange to the pipe. An optional interval weld may be applied in high stress applications. Its biggest use is in high pressure system such as hydraulic and steam lines. Lap Joint flange is again similar to a slip flange, but it has radius at the intersection of the bore and the flange face to accommodate a lap stub end. The face on the stub end forms the gasket face of the flange. Its applications are where sections of piping systems need to be dismantled quickly and easily for inspection or replacement.

Application:   The stainless steel flange is widely used in connecting the pipeline in petroleum, chemical, power, gas, water, line pipe, heat ex-changer, shipbuilding, construction. Flanged connections tend to be more bulky than other connections, but can perform well in demanding applications, such as large water mains and hydroelectric power systems.
