Slip-on Flanges For Low-pressure Piping Systems

Slip-on flanges are flanges that are designed to be slipped over the end of a pipe and then welded in place. They are commonly used in low-pressure piping systems, such as water and air lines, and are relatively easy to install.
Slip-on flanges have a hole in the center that is slightly larger than the outside diameter of the pipe. They are slipped over the end of the pipe and then welded to the pipe along the inside and outside edges of the flange. This creates a secure connection between the flange and the pipe.
One of the main advantages of slip-on flanges is that they are relatively easy to install. They do not require any special tools or equipment, and can be easily welded to the pipe using standard welding techniques. Slip-on flanges are also relatively inexpensive compared to other types of flanges.
However, slip-on flanges are not suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature applications, as they do not have the same level of strength and durability as other types of flanges. They are also not as resistant to corrosion as some other types of flanges
