How To Choose The Right Flange Types?
COMMONLY USED BASIC FLANGES The most common and best flange types widely used for many purposes and in many sites are welding neck, slip-on, socket weld, lap joint, threaded, and blind flange. Welding Neck Flange These Flanges are very simple and easy to manage compared to proprietary connections. Their workability is superior, and they are the best design for high-stress service. The welding neck covers the thickness of a wall typically and pipes adjoining with them. The structure of these flanges is explicitly made to work with high pressure and elevated temperature. Some designs contribute a significant part in the smooth transition of pipes’ pressure, depending upon the welding neck flange’s integrity relative to the application. A small projection of the neck from the base is an obvious characteristic in their structure which helps in the strong bonding with the joint, and ultimately pressure of the liquid will flow smoothly according to the design.
