Slip On Flange Hot Sales From China Supplier - China

Slip-on flange favoured for lower pressure applications.

Advantages relate to lower procurement costs, less required skill for making the weld, lower accuracy requirement for pipe cutting, and no weld preparation requirements for a pipe end weld.

What is a slip-on flange?

Slip-on flanges, also known as ‘hubbed flanges’, have a hub with a very low profile.

The so flange is usually connected to a pipe by two fillet welds (one outside the flange and one inside the flange).

Slip-on flanges are produced in many sizes and are favoured for lower-pressure applications.

They are called “slip-on” because they can be easily slipped onto the end of a pipe or fitting and then welded in place.

They also have a bored-out inner diameter that matches the pipe’s outer diameter, allowing for a smooth flow of fluids or gases.

However, if a welding neck flange cannot be used due to space limitations, a slip-on flange may be a suitable alternative.

Types of Slip-On Flanges and Their Applications

SO flanges are available in two main types, each designed to cater to specific requirements and applications within piping systems:

Standard Slip-On Flanges:

Standard or raised-face SO flanges have a raised face on the sealing surface.

They are highly suitable for low-pressure applications where the bolt-tightening force can compress the gasket adequately to prevent leakage.

Lap Joint Slip-On Flanges

Lap joint SO flanges have a flat face with a separate backing flange.

They are commonly used in systems requiring frequent dismantling, thermal expansion, or contraction applications.

Our Supply Range:

Standard: ASTM A105, ASTM A182

Material: Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, Stainless Steel

Size: 1/2” to 24”, customized up to 60”

Pressure Ratings: Class 150 to Class 2500

Face Type: RF, RTJ Key Features of Slip-On Flanges: Design:

Slip-on flanges have a flat face and are typically welded to the pipe after being slipped over it.

This design allows for easy alignment and installation.

Installation:

They are easier to install compared to other flange types, as they do not require precise alignment of the pipe ends.

The flange can be positioned and then welded in place.

Applications:

Slip-on flanges are commonly used in low-pressure applications and are suitable for various industries, including oil and gas, water treatment, and chemical processing.

Cost-Effectiveness:

Generally, slip-on flanges are more cost-effective than other types of flanges, such as weld neck flanges, due to their simpler design and installation process.

Material:

They can be made from various materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and other alloys, depending on the application requirements.

Limitations:

While slip-on flanges are versatile, they may not be suitable for high-pressure applications due to the potential for leakage at the weld joint.

Slip On Flange vs Weld Neck Flange

The strength for internal pressure of the Slip-On Flange is two-thirds of Weld Neck Flange.

Durability life is 1/3 of the WN flange.

2 fillet welds are required for the SO flange, one inside and one outside of the flange.

A space shall be reserved between the end of the pipe and the end of the flange during welding work, to avoid damage to the flange face.

The slip-on flange has to connect with a pipe first, then connect to a fitting.

(Combination of flange+elbow, or flange+tee not available, since the fittings are not in a straight end, it can not slide completely into the flange bore.

)

Slip-on flanges are usually cheaper than Weld-Neck flanges (welding neck flange), which is why many customers prefer to choose them.

It is one of the commonly used flanges for low-pressure, medium-temperature piping systems.

On the other hand, since the flange bore is larger than the pipe diameter, it usually requires more welding work than the other flanges.

So the durability is not as long as the welding neck flange; all of these factors should be considered before choosing the right flange.
