Low-Pressure Stainless Steel Unthreaded Pipe Flanges
Bolt two flat-surface flanges or two raised-surface flanges of the same size together with a
Butt-weld flanges are also known as weld-neck flanges; the flange neck has a beveled end that, when flush to pipe, creates a trough for a strong weld. Slip-on weld flanges have no internal stop; slide a pipe through the flange and weld on both sides. Stub-end flanges are also known as lap-joint flanges; use them with a stub-end straight adapter (not included). The stub-end straight adapter slides into the flange and welds to pipe (not the flange). Since the flange isn’t welded to the pipe, it can be disconnected easily for frequent cleaning and inspecting. Cap flanges are also known as blind flanges.
Forged flanges have better strength than cast flanges. 304 stainless steel flanges offer very good corrosion resistance. 316 stainless steel flanges have excellent corrosion resistance.
