Carbon Steel Forged flanges are a type of flange that is commonly used in high-pressure piping systems. They are designed to be welded or bolted onto the end of a pipe and are typically made from forged steel. Forged flanges are stronger and more durable than cast flanges, making them a better choice for applications where high pressure and/or temperature are present. Benefits of CS Forged Flanges â?¢ High strength and durability â?¢ Better resistance to corrosion and wear â?¢ Can withstand high pressure and temperature â?¢ Available in a variety of sizes and materials Applications of CS Forged Flanges â?¢ Piping systems â?¢ Valves â?¢ Pumps â?¢ Heat exchangers â?¢ Pressure vessels Types of CS Forged Flanges â?¢ Slip-on flanges â?¢ Socket weld flanges â?¢ Lap joint flanges â?¢ Threaded flanges â?¢ Blind flanges â?¢ Spectacle blind flanges Selection of CS Forged Flanges When selecting forged flanges, it is important to consider the following factors: â?¢ The pressure and temperature rating of the piping system â?¢ The type of material that the flange is made from â?¢ The size of the flange â?¢ The type of connection that the flange will be used with CS Forged flanges are a critical component of many piping systems. They provide a strong and reliable connection between pipes, valves, and other equipment. Additional Information â?¢ Forged flanges are typically made from carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel. â?¢ Forged flanges are available in a variety of sizes, from NPS 1/2 to NPS 24. â?¢ Forged flanges are available in a variety of pressure ratings, from PN 2.5 to PN 400. â?¢ Forged flanges are available in a variety of connection types, including slip-on, socket weld, lap joint, threaded, and blind flanges.
