304 Stainless Steel Loose Flange, Corrosion Resistant Chemical Pipe Fitting

Application: Modular & Corrosion-Resistant Systems

Costly Material Savings:

   (1)Clad/lined pipes (e.g., titanium, nickel alloy): Only stub end uses exotic metal.

   (2)Frequent disassembly systems: E.g., bioreactor piping.

Misalignment Compensation:

   (1)Large-diameter ducting (e.g., cement plant exhaust).

   (2)Offshore platform piping subject to settlement.

Characteristics

Rotatable Flange Design:

   (1)Flange rotates freely around stub end for bolt hole alignment.

   (2)Stub end butt-welded to pipe.

Corrosion & Erosion Protection:

   (1)Stub end material matches pipe (prevents galvanic corrosion).

   (2)Flange can be carbon steel (cost-saving).

Pressure Limitations:

   (1)Max: Class 150 (large DN) / Class 900 (small DN).

   (2)Weak Point: Gasket stress relies on stub end flatness.
