About Threaded Flange
A Threaded Flange is a vital component in piping systems, designed to connect pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment to form a secure and leak-proof assembly. Characterized by its threaded bore, this type of flange allows for easy attachment to pipes with external threads, eliminating the need for welding. This feature makes threaded flanges particularly advantageous for applications where welding is impractical or poses safety concerns, such as in hazardous environments.
Standard Threaded Flange (Screwed Flange):- Description: The most common type, featuring a threaded bore that matches the external threads of the pipe.
- Application: Used for low-pressure and low-temperature applications where welding is not feasible or safe.
- Description: Has a small raised area around the bore, providing a better sealing surface for the gasket.
- Application: Suitable for applications requiring improved gasket sealing to prevent leaks.
- Description: The entire face of the flange is flat, used when the mating flange or fitting has a flat face.
- Application: Often used in systems where the stress needs to be evenly distributed across the entire face.
- Description: Features a machined groove in the face to accommodate a metal ring gasket, providing a very tight, leak-proof seal.
- Application: Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications, such as in the oil and gas industry.
- Description: Used with a stub end fitting; the flange itself does not come into contact with the fluid inside the pipe.
- Application: Commonly used in systems that require frequent dismantling for inspection or maintenance.
- Description: A solid flange used to close the end of a pipe or valve opening.
- Application: Utilized in systems where a pipe or valve end needs to be sealed.
- Description: Designed to connect pipes of different diameters. It has a threaded bore that accommodates a smaller diameter pipe than the flange's nominal size.
- Application: Used in systems requiring transitions between different pipe sizes without needing a separate reducer.
- Description: Features a higher hub, providing additional support and strength.
- Application: Suitable for applications involving higher pressure and temperature, offering added structural integrity.
