In building engineering, what is called "flange" means detailed point?
Flange connection is the two pipes, pipe fittings or equipment, first fixed on a flange, between the two flanges, plus flange pad, bolted together, completed the connection. Some pipe fittings and equipment have their own flange, but also belong to flange connection.Flange, threaded connection (wire), flange and welding flange.
Low pressure small diameter wire connecting flange, high pressure and low pressure big diameter all use welding flange, different pressure flange thickness and connection bolt diameter and quantity are different.
According to the different grades of pressure, the flange pad also has different materials, from low pressure asbestos pad, high pressure asbestos pad to metal pad.Flange connection, easy to use, able to withstand greater pressure.Flange flanges are widely used in industrial piping. In the home, the pipe diameter is small, and it is low pressure and can not see the flange connection. In a boiler room or production site, flanges are connected to pipes and equipment.
