Flange Basics
A flange is one of the most critical connection components in industrial piping systems, used to connect pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment.
Main Functions
- Connection: Reliably join pipe sections
- Sealing: Work with gaskets
- Maintenance: Removable design
- Flexibility: Direction changes
Common Types
- Weld Neck: High pressure and temperature
- Slip On: Easy installation, lower cost
- Blind: Pipe end closure
- Socket Weld: Small diameter pipes
- Threaded: No welding required
- Lap Joint: Easy disassembly
Applications
Petroleum, chemical, power generation, water treatment, pharmaceutical, marine engineering industries.

Socket Weld Flange Guide High Pressure Small Bore Piping Applications
What is a Socket Weld Flange A Socket Weld Flange is designed for small-bore, high-pressure piping systems. The pipe is inserted into a recessed socket area and fillet welded to the flange hub, creating a strong, leak-proof connection. Key Features Socket bore matches pipe outer diameter for precise fit Fillet weld provides strong mechanical connection […]
Lap Joint Flange Stub End Assembly Easy Alignment Piping Systems
Understanding Lap Joint Flanges A Lap Joint Flange consists of two components: a stub end and a backing flange. The stub end is butt-welded to the pipe, while the backing flange rotates freely around it, allowing for easy bolt hole alignment during assembly. Design Features Two-piece construction: stub end + backing flange Backing flange rotates […]
Threaded Flange No Welding Quick Connection Piping Solutions
Threaded Flange Overview A Threaded Flange connects to pipes using internal threads, eliminating the need for welding. This makes threaded flanges ideal for applications where welding is impractical or where quick installation and disassembly are required. Design Characteristics Internal threads match pipe external threads (NPT or BSP) No welding required for installation Tapered threads create […]
