Contact SupplierSocket weld flanges are flanges that are designed to be welded to the end of a pipe using a socket weld. They are commonly used in high-pressure piping systems and are suitable for use in a variety of industries, including the oil and gas industry, power plants, and waterworks.
Socket weld flanges have a small bore and a raised face, and are designed to be welded to the end of a pipe using a socket weld. The pipe is inserted into the socket of the flange and then welded in place, creating a strong and secure connection.
One of the main advantages of socket weld flanges is their ability to handle high pressure and temperature. They are also highly durable and resistant to corrosion. However, they are more difficult to install than some other types of flanges, as they require special tools and equipment to weld the pipe to the flange.
There are several types of socket weld flanges, including raised face socket weld flanges and ring type joint socket weld flanges. The type of socket weld flange used in a particular application depends on the specific requirements of the system in which it will be used, including the operating temperature and pressure, the type of media being transported, and the required strength and durability of the connection.
