The Slip-on Flange is a type of flange designed for easy installation by slipping over the end of a pipe and then welding onto it. It provides a secure connection, commonly used in low-pressure applications where welding is accepxable.
Detailed descripxion:
The Slip-on Flange is a critical component in piping systems, characterized by its design featuring a slightly larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of the pipe it connects to. This allows for easy installation by slipping the flange over the end of the pipe and subsequently welding it in place. The welding process ensures a robust and leak-proof joint, making it suitable for low-pressure applications. Slip-on flanges are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, and water treatment plants, where reliable connections are essential for operational integrity and safety compliance.
Working principle:
The Slip-on Flange operates on the principle of providing a secure connection between two piping components. Its design allows for easy installation by slipping the flange over the end of the pipe, aligning it with the pipe's outer surface. Subsequently, the flange is welded to the pipe through a circumferential weld along the inner and outer edges. This welding process creates a robust and leak-proof joint, ensuring the integrity of the piping system. Slip-on flanges are preferred in applications where the pipe material and fluid characteristics permit welding, typically in low-pressure systems. Their reliable performance and ease of installation make them suitable for various industrial sectors, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment.
