Slip-On Flanges Overview
Introduction
A Slip-On Flange is a critical component in piping systems, designed to provide a reliable and efficient connection. This type of flange is bored slightly larger than the outer diameter of the matching pipe, allowing the pipe to slip into the flange before welding. Our high-quality slip-on flanges adhere to various British standards, including BS10 1962 Table D, E, F, H, IS 6392 Table 5, 17, 26, and IS 1538, ensuring compliance and superior performance in applications where effectiveness is essential.
What is a Slip-On Flange?
The slip-on flange features a low hub, making it easy to position pipe sections before welding. Once the pipe is inserted, both the inside and outside of the flange are welded, creating a strong seal that prevents leaks. These flanges are perfect for lower pressure applications, where structural integrity and ease of installation are paramount.
Key Benefits of Slip-On Flanges
-
Ease of Installation: Slip-on flanges are simple to fit, requiring only basic tools for installation. This results in reduced fabrication costs and faster project timelines.
-
Welding Versatility: The design allows for both internal and external welding, which enhances the strength of the connection and ensures a leak-proof seal.
-
Cost-Effective: Their straightforward design translates to lower material and labor costs compared to other flange types, making them an economical choice for many projects.
-
Simplicity and Durability: Our products are manufactured using mild steel, providing robustness in both slip-on and blind types. This durability meets the demands of various operational environments.
