Types of Reducing Flanges
Reducing Flanges, a key component in piping systems, come in a variety of types to cater to different needs. Here are some of the types offered by Citizen Pipe Fittings :
- Concentric Reducing Flanges : These flanges have a common center line. They are used when there is a need to maintain the same top or bottom center line. These are often used in vertical piping systems
- Eccentric Reducing Flanges : Unlike concentric flanges, these do not have a common center line. They are used in horizontal piping systems to maintain the bottom or top alignment
- Slip-On Reducing Flanges : These flanges are slipped over the pipe and then welded both inside and outside to provide sufficient strength and prevent leakage. They are best suited for lower pressure applications
- Weld Neck Reducing Flanges : These flanges are distinguished by their protruding necks. The pipe is welded to the neck of the flange, which helps in transferring stress from the flange to the pipe itself. This type of flange is used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications
- Threaded Reducing Flanges : These flanges are used for pipes with external threads. The benefit of these flanges is that they can be attached without welding, making them ideal for extremely high-pressure applications
- Socket Weld Reducing Flanges : These flanges are used for small-size high-pressure piping. The pipe is inserted into the socket end and then fillet-welded
- Lap Joint Reducing Flanges : These are essentially slip-on flanges, but with the added feature of a radius at the intersection of the flange face and the bore to accommodate a lap stub end. They are used in systems requiring frequent dismantling for inspection and cleaning
Each type of Reducing Flange has its unique advantages and uses, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in various industries
