Stainless Steel 316 Slip-On Flanges
Stainless steel 316 slip-on flanges are widely used in many industries for applications demanding excellent corrosion resistance and strength. These flanges are designed to fit onto pipes securly and provide easy access for maintenance and modifications. They are used to connect two sections of pipe, valves and other equipment, forming a fluid-tight seal. This inner hub connection eliminates any potential for leakage and offers better access for maintenance and repairs. Additionally, slip-on flanges have a retaining lip that overlaps the mating surface of the pipe, creating a stronger and more reliable connection.
Stainless steel 316 slip-on flanges are highly corrosion resistant and have excellent thermal properties, making them ideal for use in a wide range of applications. They are particularly well suited to marine, chemical and food processing environments due to their excellent resistance to chlorides and their tendency to resist tarnishing. Furthermore, slip-on flanges have a high strength-to-weight ratio, good ductility and excellent impact strength.
Stainless steel 316 slip-on flanges are manufactured according to the ANSI B16.5 standards, which specifies dimensional and pressure-temperature characteristics. These flanges are available in a variety of sizes and pressure classes. Specifically, as per Table E. In Table E, slip-on flanges are available in sizes ranging from 1/2” to 24” and in pressure classes from 150 to 4500lbs.
As with all stainless steels, 316 slip-on flanges are weldable for the purpose of repair, modification, or construction. Welding should be performed by experienced personnel that have the right knowledge and training. It is important to pay attention to material grade, filler type, and preparation prior to welding.
Slip-on flanges are an ideal choice for many industrial applications due to their versatility, strength, and corrosion resistance. They are an easy and cost-effective solution for piping systems and they can be installed quickly, making them a great choice for many industries.
