Flanges should be inspected regularly

A flange connection means that two pipes, fittings, or equipment are first fixed on a flange plate, a gasket is added between the two flange plates, and bolts are used to fasten them together to complete the connection. Some pipe fittings and equipment already have their own flanges, which are also flanged connections. Flanges are […]

What is a flange?

Flange, also known as flange or flange. Usually, it refers to opening several fixed holes on the periphery of a disk-like metal body for connecting other components and is widely used in various mechanical equipment and pipeline connections. Flanges are the interconnected parts between shafts and are used for the connection between pipe ends; they […]

Causes of flange leakage

What is the cause of flange leakage? 1. Reason for flange leakage: wrong mouth The staggered seam means that the pipe and the flange are vertical, but the two flanges are not concentric, and flanges are not concentric, so the surrounding bolts cannot freely penetrate the bolt holes. There is no other way, only reaming […]

Advantages of high-pressure flanges

1. Sealing method: The core of the high-pressure self-tightening flange is a precise, new metal-to-metal seal, that is, the seal is formed by the elastic deformation of the sealing lip (T-arm) of the sealing ring, which is a hard seal; The combination of tendons and bones of the ferrule, the ferrule, and the sealing ring […]

Calculation Method of Flange Installation

The flange is a kind of detachable connection that can maintain a sealing effect within a certain pressure range. The working condition of the flange is composed of a pair of flanges, several bolts, nuts, a gasket and a washer. Under the tensioning action of the bolt, the flange compresses the gasket between the compression […]

Knowledge of butt welding flange

Butt welding flange refers to a flange with a neck and a round pipe transition and connected to the pipe by butt welding, which is a kind of pipe fittings. The advantages of butt welding flanges are anti-corrosion, acid and alkali resistance, long service life, etc., and the price is reasonable, the surface is smooth, […]

Weld Neck Flange

Weld neck flange are typically provided with a raised face, flat face, or RTJ facing. When a raised face is necessary for flanges, the standard height is 1/16″ for weld neck flanges fewer than 400#. For weld neck flanges of 400# and up, the standard flange raised face height is 1/4″. DESCRIPTION OF WELD NECK […]
