Flange, also known as flange or flange. It is a part that connects steel pipes. It is connected to the end of the steel pipe. There are holes in the flange, which can be bolted to make the two flanges tightly connected. The flanges are sealed with gaskets. Flange steel pipe fittings refer to steel pipe fittings with flanges (flanges or flanges). It can be cast, threaded, or welded. Flange connection (flange, joint) consists of a pair of flanges, a gasket, and several bolts and nuts. The gasket is placed between the sealing surfaces of the two flanges. After tightening the nut, the specific pressure on the surface of the gasket reaches a certain value and deforms, and fills the uneven parts of the sealing surface to make the connection tight and leak-proof. Some steel pipe fittings and equipment already have flanges, which also belong to flange connections. Flange connection is an important connection method for steel pipeline construction.

The flange connection is easy to use and can withstand greater pressure. In industrial steel pipelines, flange connection is widely used. In the home, the steel pipeline has a small diameter and is low pressure, so the flange connection is invisible. If you are in a boiler room or production site, you will see steel pipes and equipment connected by flanges everywhere.

The function of the flange is to fix and seal the joints of steel pipe fittings. Flanges are mainly used to connect and tighten steel pipes, steel pipe fittings, etc., and maintain the sealing performance of steel pipes and steel pipe fittings; flanges are detachable, which is convenient for disassembling and checking the condition of steel pipes. Different diameter flanges are corrosion-resistant and acid-resistant and can be used in water conservancy, electricity, power stations, steel pipe fittings, industry, pressure vessels, etc.

Stainless steel flanges can be used in boiler pressure vessels, petroleum, chemical industry, shipbuilding, pharmaceuticals, metallurgy, machinery, food, and other industries, which are convenient for the replacement of a certain section of steel pipes.

Reducer flanges are mainly used for connecting motors and reducers and connecting reducers with other equipment. Butt-welded flanges are steel pipes used to transfer pressure, thereby reducing high-stress concentration at the flange base.

Through the introduction of the role of flanges, do you have a closer understanding of flanges? Flanges have various uses and are important industrial parts. Therefore, they cannot be ignored during the purchase process. Their role is to complete their work, so they exist in their unique way. Please go to a dedicated parts wholesaler to buy flanges to avoid being cheated or encountering inferior flanges, which are not conducive to the role of flanges. Reasonable use of the role of flanges will bring great benefits to your life.
