Our specialty flanges redefine industry standards, offering expertly crafted solutions for diverse applications. From plate flanges optimizing efficiency to custom options, our specialty flanges demonstrate our commitment to excellence and innovation.
Our plate flanges stand out as essential components in various industries, especially in the oil and gas sectors. Expertly cut from flat metal pieces, our plate flanges play a crucial role in connecting pipes and providing protection against external factors. With a circular design and a larger circumference compared to other flange types, these flanges exhibit remarkable strength, making them suitable for high-pressure environments.
Our stub end flanges, commonly known as lap joint flanges, play an essential role in alloy piping systems. Designed to work seamlessly with stub ends, these flanges involve a unique setup where the stub end adapter passes through the flange and is welded to the pipe. The lap joint flange resembles a slip-on flange but features a flat face and a machined radius at the bore, enabling easy rotation for alignment with the mating flange. When bolted up, the lap joint flange compresses the stub end against the gasket and the other mating surface, ensuring a secure seal.
Featuring a larger diameter on one end and a smaller one on the other, our reducer flanges provide a seamless transition from a larger pipe to a smaller one. They’re specifically designed for instances where pipes of varying sizes cannot be directly connected using standard flanges. Reducer flanges are ideal for use with butt weld fittings, making them incompatible with socket weld or threaded fittings.
Counter bore flanges, also known as mating flanges, facilitate a flange-to-flange connection with a pump discharge. Our counter bore flanges feature a counterbore slightly larger than the outer diameter of the matching pipe, enabling easy insertion of the pipe. A strategically placed restriction at the bottom of the bore acts as a shoulder for the pipe to rest on, with the same inner diameter as the matching pipe. The flange is securely attached to the pipe through a fillet weld at the hub, and the shoulder created by the difference between the bore and counterbore ensures an unobstructed flow of product through the connection.
Our orifice flanges provide a specialized solution for meter connections, featuring radial, tapped holes in the flange ring. These flanges, similar to standard weld neck, slip-on, and screwed flanges, include additional bolts serving as jack screws to simplify the separation of flanges for inspection or replacement of the orifice plate. Available in pressure classes ranging from 300# to 2500# and constructed from carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy materials, our orifice flanges are suitable for wide-ranging industrial applications.
Specialty flanges, redefining industry standards, provide expertly crafted solutions for diverse applications, optimizing efficiency with plate flanges and showcasing a commitment to excellence and innovation through custom options. These specialized flanges exemplify a dedication to surpassing traditional norms in the industry.
