Weld Neck Flange Explained Premium Choice for High Pressure Piping

What is a Weld Neck Flange

A Weld Neck Flange features a long tapered hub that is butt-welded to the pipe. It is the most commonly used flange type for high pressure, high temperature, and low temperature applications.

Những ưu điểm nổi bật

1. Superior stress distribution with tapered hub design
2. High strength connection comparable to pipe itself
3. Handles extreme conditions: high pressure, temperature, cyclic loading
4. Reduced turbulence with matching bore
5. Inspectable welds for quality assurance
