Discussion on flange material issues and manufacturing instructions

2022年02月18日

What are the characteristics of flanges? What is the use of different flanges? Let's take a look at different types of flanges and usage precautions. What is the relationship between flanges and stainless steel?


Firstly, what are the characteristics of stainless steel flanges compared to carbon steel? Let's take a look at the comparison! Stainless steel material determines its high electrical resistivity and has a large linear expansion coefficient. It is larger than carbon steel, and its expansion coefficient increases with increasing temperature.


Can we provide some explanations for improving corrosion resistance, flange? For weldability, we can appropriately increase the amount of stable elements such as Ti, Nb, Mo, etc. These are some trace elements!


What is the shape of the flange? The shape is circular, and we can usually see them in pipelines. Use flanges in pairs and together with matching flanges on the valve. It is important to clarify that flanges cannot be used alone and must be used together!


All flanges are made of stainless steel, without a doubt! At present, all the accessories we know of are made of stainless steel, thus possessing the characteristics of stainless steel.


As is well known, stainless steel has good corrosion resistance. These materials are not affected by corrosion issues and will not wear.


Different pressure flanges have different thicknesses and are connected with different bolts, valves, and pipelines, and these components of the device also have corresponding flange shapes.


The above is the material and purpose of the flange. This high-performance equipment has many advantages and has been used in many industrial fields, bringing many benefits to the pipeline industry.
