Question:

How many kinds of flanges are there?

How many kinds of flanges are there?

Answer:

1. The flange is divided into flange, flange, threaded flange, socket welding flange and loose flange according to connection.2. according to the form of flange sealing surfaceFlange in accordance with its form of sealing surface can be divided into flat, convex surface, concave convex surface, tongue and groove surface and ring connection surface. There are 4 standards in our current flanges: National Standard (GB/T), machinery industry standard (JB/T), Sinopec General Corporation Standard (SH) and chemical industry standard (HG). The standard of the sealing surface of the name is different, see the table below the name of the sealing surface.Table cover name contrastSealing surface nameNational standard(GB) chemical industry standards(HG) Sinopec General Corporation standards;(SH) machinery industry standards;(JB)Plane plane (FF) full plane (FF) whole plane (FF) -Convex surface (RF), convex surface (RF), convex surface (RF), convex surfaceConcave convex surface, concave convex surface (MF), concave convex surface (MFM), concave convex surface (MF), concave convex surfaceTongue and groove face, groove face (TG), tenon (TG), tenon (TG), tongue and groove faceRing connection surface, ring connection surface (RJ), ring connection surface (RJ), ring connection surface (RJ), ring connection surface
4. according to the material for making flangesAccording to the flange material can be divided into: cast iron flange, steel flange, plastic flange, copper flange and so on.At the same time, there are 4 standards for flanges in our country, namely, versatility and specificity. Each flange standard is not limited to the scope of this trade, but it is crossed and permeated. In order to gradually unify the flange standard, the National Machinery Committee has formulated a series of flange standard, where GB/T9112~9124 - 2000 "steel pipe flange" series standard is quite comprehensive, but this does not mean the national standard to replace the other flange standard. HG/T20592~20635 - 2009 "steel pipe flanges, gaskets and fasteners" is adjusted and revised based on the original HG/T20592~20635 - 1997, which is set by European and American system system respectively in the preparation of pipe flange standard system, clear and operational use.
3. according to the structure of the flangeThe flange in the form of the structure can be divided into the whole neck flange, threaded flange, flange, butt welding and hubbed flange hubbed socket welding flange, butt welding ring loose plate flange, welding ring loose plate flange, flange ring loose plate flange, flange cover etc..
