About Slip on Flanges
These stainless steel flanges are fillet welded to a position and are ideal for low-pressure applications. Blind Flanges: The flanges are designed without a bore, and are used to seal vessel openings or piping systems. These flanges are ideal for piping systems or vessels that require regular inspection.
Versatile Connection SolutionsSlip on flanges provide versatile solutions for various industrial sectors, effortlessly connecting pipes in systems exposed to high pressure and corrosive environments. Their design accommodates a wide range of standards, sizes, and pressure ratings, ensuring compatibility for diverse applications including oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation plants.
Durability and Reliability AssuredManufactured using high-purity stainless steel, carbon steel, or alloy steel, these flanges are engineered for strength and longevity. Their anti-corrosive polished surfaces enhance durability, while the forged technics guarantee reliable, leak-proof performance even in demanding operational conditions.
FAQ's of Slip on Flanges:
Q: How are slip on flanges installed in industrial piping systems?
A: Slip on flanges are installed by slipping them over the pipe and then welding both the inside and outside edges to create a strong, leak-proof connection. This process is straightforward, making it ideal for applications that require quick assembly and disassembly.
Q: What are the key benefits of using slip on flanges with anti-corrosive and polished surfaces?
A: The anti-corrosive and polished surfaces of these flanges offer excellent resistance to corrosive media, extend service life, and provide a rust-proof barrier. This results in reduced maintenance needs and ensures reliable performance even in harsh environments.
Q: When should I opt for a mirror, matt, or smooth finish on slip on flanges?
A: The choice between mirror, matt, or smooth finishes depends on the application's aesthetic and functional requirements. Mirror finishes are typically used where appearance and hygiene are important, while matt and smooth finishes offer practical benefits for general industrial applications and ease of maintenance.
Q: Where can slip on flanges with ASTM A182, A105, or A694 specifications be used?
A: Flanges meeting ASTM A182, A105, or A694 specifications are suitable for pipe connections in industries like petrochemical, power plants, oil & gas, and water supply where high strength, temperature, and pressure resistance are critical.
Q: What customizations are available for the bolt hole diameter and dimensions of these flanges?
A: Bolt hole diameters and overall dimensions can be tailored to specific project or industry requirements, in adherence to ASME, ANSI, DIN, JIS, BS, and GOST standards. This enables compatibility with various international piping systems.
Q: How does the operating temperature range affect slip on flange selection?
A: The operating temperature range of -29C to 600C, depending on material, determines suitability for different environments. Selecting the right material grade, such as 304L or 316L stainless steel, ensures optimal performance under specific temperature conditions.
