Flanges

Flanges are components used to connect sections of pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment in a wide range of industrial applications. They provide a secure and leak-tight connection between two or more components, allowing for the efficient and safe transportation of fluids, gases, or other materials. Flanges are typically made of metal, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, and come in various sizes, shapes, and configurations to fit different types of equipment and piping systems.

Flanges may be welded, screwed, or bolted to the equipment or pipe to create a joint. The joint between two flanges is typically sealed with a gasket, which helps to prevent leaks and ensure the integrity of the system. There are several types of flanges, including slip-on flanges, weld neck flanges, blind flanges, threaded flanges, lap joint flanges, and socket weld flanges, each designed for specific applications and requirements.
