SS316L Stainless Steel CL1500 WN Flange

Usage of a weld neck flange

The specification of ASTM A182 Forged Pipe Fittings includes forged fittings, stainless steel, rolled alloy, forged alloy, pipe flanges as well as high-temperature service. Later then forgings and hot working, it would be cooled down to a certain temperature before heat treatment.
The Alloy Steel A182 Threaded Elbow material grade contains ASTM A182 F11 / 12 / 5 / 9 / 91 / 92 / 22.

Socket Weld Half Couplings is utilised in various applications in order to provide a torque free sealing and a leak free connection. Socket weld coupling is a very short section of pipes with socket bore at both ends or one end, but both can afford high pressure of 3000#, 6000#, 9000#. The Socket Weld Half Coupling are often directly welded to the run pipe, to form a branch connection.

A182 F304 forged flanges are stainless steeel flanges,ASME B16.5 SW flanges are socket weld flanges following American Standard specifications.

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.

Slip on flange, also called SO flange. It’s a kind of flange slides over the pipe with internal design is slightly larger than the pipe. Since the inner diameter of the flange is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the pipe, the SO flange can be directly connected to equipment or pipe by fillet weld at the top and bottom of the flange. It is used to insert the pipe into the inner hole of the flange.

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.

What is a SW flange and what about its specification.

flange type: Weld Neck Flange ( WN),Slip-on Flange (SO), Threaded Flange (THD),Socket Weld Flange (SW),Blind Flange (BL),Lap Joint Flange (LAPJ),Plate flange (PL)

Socket Weld Flange contain a shoulder on the flange inside that acts as a guide to set the depth at which the pipe is welded to the flange.

A WN / weld neck flange, also called a tapered hub flange or high-hub flange, is a kind of flange that can relocate stress to the pipes, ensuring a decrease in high-stress concentration at the bottom of the flange.

1500 LB SO flanges are belong to high pressure flanges.Flanges have many pressures:CL150, CL300, CL600, CL900, CL1500, CL2500.Flange dimension has a very large range to meet different demands.

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.

Stainless steel flange is popular because stainless steel has great anti-corrosive function.Flanges can be many types:WN,SO,SW,THD,LAPJ,BL.These flanges use different connections to connect with the pipes.Shanghai Zhucheng is a high quality manufactory who can supply all types of flanges.

Class 300 LAPJ flanges are used with lap joint stub end.The pressures for ASME B16.5 forged flanges including 150LB,300LB,600LB,900LB,1500LB12500LB.

Standards and application Referred for WN flange and application

Slip on flange also named as SO flange. SO flanges slip over pipes and are designed to bit slightly bigger on the inside than the pipe. They connect to the pipe through a fillet weld at the flange top and bottom.

The bore of the slip on will give ample amount of space for the matching pipe. This allows for enough working space for the welder and fabricator to make the connection.Slip-On flanges are commonly lower in price than weld-neck flange.

CL 600 slip on flanges are commonly used type of flanges.ASTM A182 F316L is a popular grade for stainless steel.Stainless steel flanges are popular because of the an-ti corrosive function.Stainless steel flanges can used over 50 years.

These pipe flanges are attached by inserting the pipe into the socket end and applying fillet weld around the top. This allows for a smooth bore and better flow of the fluid or gas inside of the pipe. The connection with the pipe is done with 1 fillet weld, at the outside of the flange. But before welding, a space must be created between flange or fitting and pipe.

Steel Pipe Elbow is the most common pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipeline. It plays a important role in the piping system.
