We stock screwed flanges and can supply stainless steel, carbon steel & nickel alloy screwed pipe flanges. Weld neck flanges are a common type of pipe flanges used in various industrial applications. They have a long tapered hub and are often used for high pressure applications. Weld neck flanges are available in various materials including steel, stainless steels, cast iron, brass, galvanized steel, carbon steel, aluminum, copper, polypropylene, and PVC. They are distinguished from other types of pipe flanges by their long tapered hub and gentle transition of thickness in the region of the butt weld joining them to the pipe. The long tapered hub provides an important reinforcement of the weld neck flange proper in terms of strength and resistance to dishing. The weld neck flange is resistant to dishing and has a sturdy connection because it has the pipe along with the tapered hub. The flanges are ideal for extreme fluctuations of temperature. They are ideal in environments where there may be a lot of bending and handling of the flanges. They are used in situations where loading conditions are substantially constant or fluctuate between wide limits. Reducing flanges are designed for use in changing diameters in a piping system. A reducing flange comprises a flange with one specified diameter having a bore of a different and smaller diameter.
