About SS 309 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 OptionsSS 309 Flanges are designed for a variety of piping requirements, offered in several face (RF, FF, RTJ) and end types (Slip-On, Weld Neck, Socket Weld, Blind, Lap Joint, Threaded). This flexibility ensures seamless integration in both welded and bolted assemblies, accommodating standard or custom dimensions to suit project-specific needs in diverse industries.
Exceptional Performance at High TemperaturesManufactured from SS 309 stainless steel, these flanges demonstrate outstanding heat resistance up to 1000C. Their excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance make them suitable for use in harsh environments such as petrochemical plants and thermal power stations, consistently ensuring reliability and longevity under extreme conditions.
Quality Assurance and Export-Ready PackagingEach flange is tested and certified to EN 10204/3.1 or 3.2 standards, assuring superior material quality and traceability. Finishes available include bright, matte, polished, or smooth surfaces. Product shipments are securely packed in export-worthy wooden boxes, minimizing risk of damage during global transportation.
FAQ's of SS 309 Flanges:
Q: How are SS 309 flanges typically installed in industrial piping systems?
A: SS 309 flanges can be welded or bolted based on connection type and system requirements.
