304 Stainless Steel WNRF Weld Neck Flange is a core forged pipe fitting widely used in industrial fluid piping systems. Manufactured in strict accordance with ASME B16.5 standards with Class150 low-pressure rating and raised face (RF) sealing structure, this flange adopts integral closed-die forging technology. Different from plate-cut flanges, it features dense and uniform internal metallographic structure without pores, sand holes or layered cracks. The unique tapered hub design effectively buffers pressure fluctuation, mechanical vibration and alternating temperature stress during pipeline operation, fundamentally avoiding flange deformation, cracking and leakage risks. Made of genuine ASTM A182 F304 austenitic stainless steel billet, the product undergoes CNC high-precision turning, end finishing, pickling and passivation treatment. The flatness, perpendicularity and bolt hole position of the sealing surface fully comply with international tolerance standards. The full penetration butt weld structure supports radiographic testing after welding, fully meeting global engineering acceptance specifications. With excellent atmospheric corrosion resistance and stable performance in mild acid and alkali environments, this cost-effective flange is ideal for long-term continuous operation of conventional industrial pipelines, widely applied in municipal engineering, light industry, general chemical and HVAC projects.
Core Selling Points:
1.Integral closed-die forging with dense metallurgy, higher structural strength than plate-cut flanges;
2. Tapered stress-relief hub resists vibration and fatigue for alternating pipeline working conditions
3. Standard RF face compatible with spiral wound, PTFE and rubber gaskets;
4. Genuine 304 austenitic steel with stable anti-corrosion performance;
5. Full penetration weld supports RT non-destructive testing for engineering approval;
6. Full size in stock from NPS1/2” to NPS24 for fast delivery;
7. Strict ASME tolerance for global interchangeability;
8. Factory passivation treatment for superior oxidation and corrosion resistance.
