 Threaded flanges applications for industrial piping systems

Threaded flanges applications for industrial piping systems

A Variety of Threaded Flanges

There are many available sizes of this variety of flanges and many pressure ratings. Though this is the case, they are most frequently used for piping systems that are small. These piping systems are usually equal to or less than 4 inches.

Critical Advantages of These Flanges

The key advantage of these flanges is that they can connect to pipes without involving the process of welding. This is an advantage and often a necessity. It is an essential feature in industries and locations dealing with explosive products. Examples would be stores that have flammable fluids, gas stations, and hexane plants.

FAQ

A Threaded Flange is a fitting with internal threads to connect to threaded pipes, offering a no-weld solution per ASME B16.5.

The Threaded Flange screws onto a threaded pipe, creating a secure, leak-proof joint for low-pressure systems as of August 19, 2025.

Threaded Flange is made from carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel, providing durability and corrosion resistance.

A Threaded Flange is needed for low-pressure systems in water treatment, food processing, or chemical handling requiring no welding.

Install a Threaded Flange by screwing it onto a threaded pipe and tightening with a gasket for a secure seal.

The Threaded Flange uses threads for no-weld installation, while the Socket Weld Flange requires welding for higher pressure strength.

A Threaded Flange lasts 15–30 years with proper sealing, corrosion protection, and maintenance as of August 2025.

Threaded Flange is used in water treatment, food processing, chemical handling, and low-pressure systems for easy connections.

Threaded flanges are threaded in the bore which match an external thread on the pipe. Threaded flanges are used with pipes that have external threads. The benefit of these flanges is that it can be attached without welding.

  • Threaded flanges can be fitted to pipes of various sizes without welding and this is one chief benefit for which these flanges are highly demanded.
  • They can be used in extremely high pressure applications, particularly at or near atmospheric temperature, where the necessary post weld heat treatment is not possible.
  • They are ideal for small diameter piping applications.
  • They are economical and time saving devices.
  • These threaded flanges are normally designed for non-cyclic applications.
  • The flanges are suitable to be used in applications where welding is hazardous.
  • They can be used in highly explosive areas.

No, Threaded Flange is limited to low pressures up to 300 PSI, unsuitable for high-pressure systems.

Maintain Threaded Flange with regular thread inspections, corrosion checks, and reapplication of protective coatings for longevity.

Flange Face Types

Flange Face
Raised Face (RF)

The most common type, featuring a raised sealing surface that concentrates the bolting force on a smaller area.

Lip Height: 1/16" for 150#-600#, 1/4" for 900# and higher
Flat Face (FF)

Has a flat sealing surface, commonly used with cast iron flanges and for low-pressure applications.

Application: Cast iron flanges, pumps, and valves
Ring Joint (RTJ)

Features a groove for metal ring gaskets (oval or octagonal), providing metal-to-metal sealing.

Material: 316 stainless steel rings for corrosive applications
Tongue & Groove (T&G)

Features matching tongue and groove surfaces, providing self-alignment and confined gasket area.

Benefit: High-pressure applications with good gasket compression

Flange faces have to be smooth enough to ensure a tight, leak-free seal for bolted flanges.

ASTM standards define the specific manufacturing process of the material and determine the exact chemical composition of pipes, fittings and flanges, through percentages of the permitted quantities of carbon, magnesium, nickel, etc., and are indicated by "Grade".

The usual materials of flanges include stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum and plastic. The choice of the material largely depends on the purpose of the flange. For example, stainless steel is more durable and is necessary for heavy use. On the other hand, plastic is more feasible for use in the home because of its reasonable price and easy installation. The materials used for flanges are under the designation of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.

Flange materials acc. to ASTM

The most common materials for pipe flanges (forged grades) are: ASTM A105 (carbon steel high temperature to match A53/A106/API 5L pipes), A350 Grades LF1/2/3 (carbon steel low temperature to match A333 pipes), A694 Grades F42 to F80 (high yield carbon steel to match API 5L pipe grades), ASTM A182 Grades F5 to F91 (alloy steel flanges to match A335 pipes), A182 Grade F304/316 (stainless steel flanges to match A312 SS pipes), A182 Gr. F44/F51/F53/F55 (duplex and super duplex to match A790/A928 pipes) and various nickel alloy grades (Inconel, Incoloy, Hastelloy, Monel).

The material qualities for these flanges are defined in the ASTM standards.
