plate flange

Simplified Installation & MaintenanceThe flat welding design allows for easy alignment between the flange and pipe, requiring no specialized welding equipment or highly skilled operators. The welding process is straightforward with annular fillet welds, reducing installation time by 30%-40% compared to necked flanges. For maintenance or replacement, the flange can be quickly disassembled without damaging the main pipeline, minimizing downtime in industrial operations.
Wide Compatibility & VersatilityAvailable in multiple standards (ASME ANSI B16.5, EN 1092-1, ISO 7005-1, GB/T 9119) and sizes (DN10-DN2000, 1/2"-80"), it supports various pressure ratings (PN6-PN40, Class 150-Class 600) and sealing faces (FF, RF, T/G, RJ). Compatible with carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and non-ferrous metal pipes, it is widely used in petroleum, chemical, natural gas, water treatment, power generation, and shipbuilding industries.
Reliable Sealing PerformanceThe flat or raised sealing face (FF/RF) is precision-machined via CNC technology, ensuring a tight fit with gaskets (rubber, PTFE, metal spiral wound). When paired with appropriate gaskets, it achieves leak-proof sealing even under medium-low pressure and normal temperature conditions, with a sealing success rate of over 98% in standard operating environments.
Lightweight & Space-Saving DesignThe compact neck-free structure reduces the overall weight of the pipeline system, lowering the load on supports and hangers. Its slim profile requires less installation space, making it ideal for confined areas
