Flanges (ANSI B16.5)
We specialize in carbon and stainless steel flanges; commodity or custom design. Following are descriptions of some of the flanges that we can provide.
A flange is a forged ring of steel used either to join two sections of pipe or start a section of pipe from a pressure vessel or valve. It may be joined to the pipe by a weld or thread. |

Weld Neck Flange |
This type of flange is designed to transfer stress to the pipe. It can be used in high pressure and extreme temperature environments.

Slip-On Flange |
This type of flange has a lower unit cost than a Weld Neck flange, but installation costs are as high as for Weld Neck flanges.

Blind Flange |
This flange has no bore. It typically closes off the end of a piping system while also permitting easy access to the interior of a line after installation.

Threaded Flange |
This flange is assembled without welding. It can be used in low-pressure applications and in highly explosive areas where welding is dangerous. It is not suited for uses where there are cyclical te

Socket Weld Flange |
This flange have a bore and counter bore, which allows the pipe to be inserted into the flange. This is more expensive than a Slip-On but much stronger. It is primarily used for high-pressure small

Other Flanges |
Lap Joint Flanges
slip over piping equipped with lap joint stub ends or lapped pipe. They are not welded which allows them to be swiveled to line up the flange bolt holes.<
