About Slip On Flange
A Slip On Flange is a ring (flange) that is slipped over the end of a pipe and then welded both inside and outside to provide a secure connection. It features a flat face with bolt holes around the perimeter, allowing it to be bolted to another flange or fitting.
-
Design: The Slip On Flange has a bore slightly larger than the pipe, allowing the flange to slip over the pipe. It requires two fillet welds, one on the outside at the back of the flange and one on the inside at the end of the pipe.
-
Ease of Installation: Slip On Flanges are easier to position and align with other components compared to some other flange types, such as Weld Neck Flanges. This simplifies the installation process.
-
Cost-Effective: They are generally less expensive than Weld Neck Flanges, making them a cost-effective solution for many applications.
-
Selection Criteria for Slip On Flanges:
- Pipe Size: Ensure the flange size matches the pipe size.
- Pressure Rating: Choose a flange with a suitable pressure rating for your application.
- Material Compatibility: Select a material that is compatible with the fluid being transported and the environmental conditions.
- Standards Compliance: Ensure the flange meets the required standards (e.g., ASME, ANSI, DIN) for your specific application.
