Stainless Steel 304 316 Weld Neck Flange Forged Flange

Flange is a disc-shaped part, which is the most common in pipeline engineering. Flanges are used in pairs and matching flanges on valves. In pipeline engineering, flanges are mainly used for pipeline connection. In the pipelines that need to be connected, a flange plate is installed in various ways. The low-pressure pipeline can use the wire flange, and the welding flange is used for the pressure above 4 kg. A gasket is added between the two flanges and then tightened with bolts. Flanges with different pressures have different thicknesses and use different bolts.

The main function of the flange

1. Connect the pipeline and maintain the sealing performance of the pipeline;

2. Facilitate the replacement of a certain section of pipeline;

3. It is easy to disassemble and check the pipeline condition;

4. Facilitate the closure of a certain section of pipeline.

Features of flange

The flange connection is easy to use and can withstand greater pressure. In industrial pipelines, flange connections are widely used. In the home, the pipe diameter is small, and it is low pressure, and the flange connection is invisible. If it is in a boiler room or production site, flanged pipes and equipment are everywhere.

In layman's terms, the function of the flange is to fix and seal the pipe joints.
