ASME B16.5 600# Flange Slip On Flange Size

A flange can be defined as a method that helps in connecting pipes, valves, etc., to form a full piping system. There are six flange classes ranging from #150 to #2500. Governed by B 16.5 standards, the ASME B16. 5 Class 300 Flange provides a pressure capacity of 300Lb.

What is a SW flange and what about its specification.

ASTM A182 F316 is a popular grade for stainless steel in American Standard.Stainless steel fittings are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

The smooth transition between the flange and the hub combined with the strength of the butt weld joint, allows the flange to be used in extreme conditions of cyclic loading, bending and temperature fluctuations.

150LB threaded flanges are one types of flanges.Other types of flanges are WN,SO,SW,LAPJ,BL.Stainless steel 316L flanges are popular in many corrosive environments because of the excllent corrosion resistance.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.

Stainless steel 316L LAPJ flange has great anti-corrosive function,it always used with lap joint stub end of same material.ASME B 16.5 forged flange have soem pressures:CL150,CL300,CL600,CL900,CL1500,CL2500.You could find the comparison between LAPJ flanges,SO flanges and WN flanges below.

WN flange is a commonly used type of flanges,ASMT A150 forged flange is carbon steel flange according to American Standard.Flanges have many types:WN,SO,SW,THD,LAPJ,BL.

Class 150 WN flange is the lowest pressure flange in all the flanges,langes also have many pressures:CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.ASTM A105 is the matal standard for forged flanges and fittings.

Slip on flange is also called SO flange.This flange can slip onto the pipes and welded with the pipes.Shanghai Zhucheng is a forged flanges supplier who supply high quality flanges for years.

150LB slip on flange is the lowest pressure flange in all pressure flanges.ASME B16.5 forged flange is manufacted according to American Standard.Pressures for flanges have 150LB,300LB,600LB,900LB,1500LB,2500LB.

Blind flanges are used to seal the end of piping systems or pressure vessel openings.

Some information abou SO Flange.

Material Grade: ASTM A182 F304/304L/304H, 316/316L, 321, 310S, 317,347,904L， 1.4404, 1.4437.

Slip on flange can be made by forging, steel cutting, casting and etc. Among these manufacturing types, the forging type gains the best quality and also the most common use.

Usage of a weld neck flange

High pressure flange carbon steel material: ASTM A105 / A105N, ASTM A350 LF2/LF3, ASTM A694 F42 / 46 / 56 / 60 / 65, P235GH, P265GH, P280GH, P355GH

ASME B16. 5 is limited to flanges and flanged fittings made from cast or forged materials, and blind flanges and certain reducing flanges made from cast, forged, or plate materials. Also included in this Standard are requirements and recommendations regarding flange bolting, flange gaskets, and flange joints.

An assembly with limited space may be an instance in which a socket weld is selected, provided the pressure class is comparatively low and the fluid is not corrosive or for extremely high temperature service.

It is used to insert the pipe into the inner hole of flange, as the flange inner diameter is little bigger than the pipe’s outer diameter, pipe and flange could be connected by lap welding at the top and bottom of the flange.

What is a Weld Neck Flange and its 2 different shapes

What is a blind flang,what about its specification and advantage.

The common material grade of stainless steel ASTM A182 contains F304/304L/304H, 316/316L, 321, 310S, 317,347,904L， 1.4404, 1.4437.

Many times a nozzle will be blanked off with a blind flange for pressure tests in a plant, or simply because the customer does not need all the nozzles that were supplied on the tank.

Socket weld flange can socket with the end of pipe,and welding on the pipe.Stainless steel flanges are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel pipe fittings can used over 50 years.

orged steel flange is a disc-shaped piece of equipment used to connect a pipe to fittings or valve or other component to form a pipework system. Usually flange has been attached to pipe or tube end to, and then a gasket is inserted in the middle to form a seal. Finally they are joined together with bolts and nuts.
