Socket weld flanges represent a go-to choice for piping systems, designed to create a strong and secure connection using a socket weld mechanism. Featuring a small-diameter bore that perfectly fits over the outside diameter of the pipe, our socket weld flanges are crafted with precision. The counterbore on the back side aligns seamlessly with the pipe's diameter, ensuring a snug fit.
Recognized for their resilience in high-pressure and high-temperature environments, our socket weld flanges are a preferred choice for demanding applications. The socket weld connection distributes loads evenly, making these flanges suitable for scenarios involving cyclic loading and effectively reducing stress concentrations.
Socket weld flanges are a type of pipe flange that features a socket-like end for welding to the pipe, providing a strong and leak-resistant connection. These flanges are commonly used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications, where their robust design ensures a secure joint in various industrial settings.
A Socket Weld Flange is a type of flange that features a female socket designed to accept a pipe that is welded inside the socket, creating a strong and leak-tight connection.
