Factory direct ASME/ANSI B16.5 & B16.47 steel pipe flanges and fittings

Standard Information - ASME/ANSI B16.5 & B16.47 - Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings The ASME B16.5 standard covers various aspects of pipe flanges and flanged fittings, including pressure-temperature ratings, materials, dimensions, tolerances, marking, testing, and designating openings for these components. This standard includes flanges with rating class designations ranging from 150 to 2500, covering sizes from NPS 1/2 through NPS 24. It provides requirements in both metric and U.S units. It's important to note that this standard is limited to flanges and flanged fittings made from cast or forged materials, including blind flanges and specific reducing flanges made from cast, forged, or plate materials. For pipe flanges and flanged fittings larger than 24" NPS, ASME/ANSI B16.47 should be referenced. Common Flange Types ● Slip-On Flanges: These flanges are commonly stocked in ANSI Class 150, 300, 600, 1500 & 2500 up to 24" NPS. They are "slipped over" the pipe or fitting ends and welded in position, allowing for fillet welds both inside and outside the flange. Reduction versions are used to reduce line sizes when space is limited. ● Weld Neck Flanges: These flanges have a distinct long tapered hub and a smooth transition of thickness, ensuring a full penetration weld connection to the pipe or fitting. They are used in severe service conditions. ● Lap Joint Flanges: Paired with a stub end, lap joint flanges are slipped over the stub end fitting and connected by welding or other means. Their loose design allows for easy alignment during assembly and disassembly. ● Backing Flanges: These flanges lack a raised face and are used with backing rings, providing cost-effective solutions for flange connections. ● Threaded (Screwed) Flanges: Bored to match specific pipe inside diameters, threaded flanges are machined with tapered pipe threads on the reverse side, primarily for smaller bore pipes. ● Socket Weld Flanges: Resembling slip-on flanges, socket weld flanges are machined to match pipe size sockets, allowing fillet welding on the back side to secure the connection. They are typically used for smaller bore pipes. ● Blind Flanges: These flanges have no center hole and are used to close or block the end of a piping system. These are some of the common types of pipe flanges used in various industrial and commercial applications. The choice of flange type depends on factors like the pressure, temperature, and type of fluid being transported, as well as specific project requirements. Proper selection and installation of flanges are crucial for the safe and efficient operation of piping systems.

Flange Materials Flanges are welded to pipe and equipment nozzle. Accordingly, it is manufactured from the following materials; ● Carbon steel ● Low alloy steel ● Stainless steel ● Combination of Exotic materials (Stub) and other backing materials The list of materials used in manufacturing is covered in ASME B16.5 & B16.47. ● ASME B16.5 -Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings NPS ½” to 24” ● ASME B16.47 -Large Diameter Steel Flanges NPS 26” to 60” Commonly used Forged material grads are ● Carbon Steel: – ASTM A105, ASTM A350 LF1/2, ASTM A181 ● Alloy Steel: – ASTM A182F1 /F2 /F5 /F7 /F9 /F11 /F12 /F22 ● Stainless Steel: – ASTM A182F6 /F304 /F304L /F316 /F316L/ F321/F347/F348
