Bevel x Square Design
The inside diameter is beveled on one side and left square on the opposite side. This configuration is designed to accommodate compatible Type "A" stub ends in suitable piping assemblies.
Confirm the stub end type, outside diameter, nominal size, and flange dimensions before ordering to ensure proper fit.
Serrated Sealing Surface
The flange face is serrated to help improve gasket seating and sealing performance in compatible bolted flange assemblies.
Proper gasket selection, flange alignment, bolting, and installation practices should be verified for the intended low-pressure application.
304/L vs. 316/L Stainless Steel
304/L Stainless Steel
- General-purpose corrosion resistance
- Suitable for many commercial and industrial applications
- Commonly used in water and process systems
- Low-carbon grade supports improved corrosion performance
316/L Stainless Steel
- Enhanced corrosion resistance in demanding environments
- Commonly selected for marine and chemical service
- Suitable for many chloride-exposed applications
- Low-carbon grade supports improved corrosion performance
Economical Low-Pressure Flange Option
Plate flanges provide a lighter and more economical alternative to heavier ANSI flange designs where the system operates within appropriate low-pressure conditions.
This makes them a practical option for less critical service where full forged ANSI flange construction is not required.
Common Applications
Low-Pressure Piping
- General industrial piping
- Commercial process systems
- Water systems
- Equipment connections
- Low-pressure stainless piping assemblies
Stub End Assemblies
- Type "A" stub end connections
- Stainless steel lap-style assemblies
- General fabrication
- Corrosion-resistant piping systems
- Applications requiring economical flange alignment
