Threaded flanges are designed to use threads to connect flanges to piping. Threaded flanges are used to connect pipes together in a safe, leak-free manner. They are often used in industrial pipelines where the flow of fluids or gases needs to be carefully controlled. Threaded flanges are designed to screw onto the end of a pipe, creating a tight seal that prevents leaks and ensures that the pipe operates at maximum efficiency. In addition to being used to connect pipes together, threaded flanges can also be used to connect other piping components such as valves, pumps and fittings. This makes them a versatile component that can be used in a variety of different piping configurations.
are typically made from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel or alloy steel. The material used will depend on the specific requirements of the pipeline and its operating environment.
are not suitable for pipes with thin wall thicknesses, as it is more difficult to cut threads on such pipes. In some cases, sealing welds can be used to improve the integrity of the flange and reduce the potential for leakage. Adding a seal weld increases the integrity of the flange, but it also makes the joint more difficult to assemble and disassemble (because the weld makes it a permanent joint).
