Krishna Carbon Steel Polished Lap Joint Flanges, Shape : Round

Lap joint flange (simplified as LTF flange) shape is similar to slip on flange, it has a curved radius at the bore, which can connect with a stub end fittings and slide over the pipe. In this form, the pipe is usually welded to this stub end so the lap joint flange can rotate freely around the stub end.

The advantage of this combination that it will be easy with alignment for the bolt hole, easy to install and uninstall, much more convenient to do examinations and maintenance.

Benefits of using Ring Lap Joint Flange

Compatible with frequently dismantling. You can remove the pipe easily and frequently for inspection and cleaning purposes. 

Easy to rotate flanges and align bolt holes, which simplifies assembly of large diameter or unusually stiff pipes.

Cost saving. If the pipe material in alloy steel or stainless steel. By using a lap flange, the wetting material consists of a special material and the flange will be carbon steel. Since the flange does not come into contact with the process fluid, it is not affected by the fluid.

Rescue. In systems that are rapidly corroded or corroded, the flange can be recycled for reuse.
