Study Notes
Types of Flanges and Their Applications
- Spectacle Blind Flange: Solid discs used to effectively close the end of a pipe, suitable for temporary sealing and allowing for future access.
- Flat Face Flange: Characterized by a flat face, designed primarily for low-pressure applications, facilitating even distribution of pressure.
- Threaded Flange: Features internal threads, commonly utilized in low-pressure and small-bore piping systems due to ease of installation without welding.
- Weld Neck Flange: Equipped with a long tapered neck welded to the pipe, offering enhanced strength and durability in high-pressure and high-temperature environments.
- Blind Flange: Solid circular disc used primarily to close off the end of a pipe, ideal for maintenance work and enabling future access when necessary.
- Slip-On Flange: Slipped over the pipe’s end and welded in place, making it suitable for low-pressure applications due to its ease of installation.
- Socket Weld Flange: Contains a socket or recess in the bore for the pipe end, providing a strong joint commonly used in small-diameter, high-pressure applications.
- Lap Joint Flange: Comprises two components, a stub end and a loose backing flange, offering flexibility in assembly and disassembly.
- Socket Weld Flange: Designed for small-diameter piping, specifically high-pressure applications, used with fillet welding around the outside to ensure connection integrity.
