Made of PTFE, these flanges can handle a wider temperature range than any of our other plastic pipe flanges for chemicals. They have the chemical resistance to stand up to acid and solvents. Also known as Pressure Class 150 flanges, they have thick, strong walls for heavy duty industrial applications. The material won’t leach contaminates into the line, so these flanges are commonly used in high-purity processes, such as semiconductor and clean room applications. Bolt two same-size flanges together with a gasket (sold separately) to create an access point within a line. When connecting to pipe, apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant to the male threads to prevent leaks. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic threaded connections. When making a threaded connection be careful not to overtighten the threads. To prevent cracks and leaks, finger tighten the flange, then wrench-tighten one to two turns. Flanges meet ASTM D1710 specifications and testing requirements for material quality.

Warning: Never use plastic pipe flanges and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Sealants cannot be sold to Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Northern Virginia, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, or Utah due to local VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations.
