Large flanges are a type of flange commonly used in large engineering projects. Compared to ordinary flanges, large flanges offer greater load-bearing capacity and are less prone to deformation. Thickness is a key factor affecting the performance of large flanges.
Insufficient thickness can easily cause deformation during use, posing a safety hazard.
Adequate thickness can withstand significant pressure and weight, ensuring stable operation.
Thus, thickness control is a key concern for process engineers in the design and manufacture of large flanges.
Manufacturing Process for Large Flanges
The manufacturing method for large flanges differs from that for ordinary flanges. The typical process flow is as follows:
Material Preparation
Medium-thick steel plates are typically selected and cut into strips according to the design dimensions. Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel.
Forming Process
The cut strips are rolled into a circular shape and then welded to form a ring-shaped blank. The inner and outer diameters are then machined to ensure precise dimensions.
Fine Machining
Waterline machining is performed on a machine tool, and bolt holes are created. After precision machining, large flanges can reach diameters up to 7 meters, providing a stable structure and reliable operation. It's important to note that these large flanges are mostly welded structures, not threaded connections. Due to the high density of the raw materials, the overall performance after processing is excellent, making them suitable for the installation of various large equipment.
The Importance of Flange Sealing
The sealing of flange joints is crucial during the operation of pipelines and equipment.
Poor sealing can cause leaks, resulting in energy and material waste.
In severe cases, it can lead to equipment damage, casualties, and even environmental pollution.
For this reason, industries such as the petroleum, chemical, nuclear energy, and aerospace industries have extremely strict requirements for the sealing of their pipeline systems.
It is important to emphasize the following:
The flange itself: As a removable component, it generally has high sealing performance.
The quality of the sealing material: Its quality directly affects the overall sealing effect. Selecting the right sealing material can maximize the safety and reliability of large flanges.
Summary:
Large flanges are critical pipeline connection components. Thickness control, manufacturing process, and sealing performance are all key factors affecting their quality and safety. Only by strictly controlling the design, production, and operation stages can we ensure the long-term and stable operation of large-scale projects. Cangzhou Aosendic Pipe Fittings Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a large-scale manufacturer specializing in the production of elbows, tees, reducers, elbows, and caps. We comply with ASTM, ANSI, JIS, DIN, GB, and other standards, covering virtually all steel types.

Elbow manufacturers summarize the performance comparison of national standard 90 degree elbows
In piping systems, 90-degree elbows are fittings that change the direction of a pipe. They are one of the most commonly used elbow fittings in pipeline engineering, accounting for approximately 80% of all elbows. 90-degree elbows are made from materials such as cast iron, stainless steel, alloy steel, malleable cast iron, carbon steel, non-ferrous metals, and plastics. National standard 90-degree elbows are those produced according to national standards, including GB12459 "Steel Butt-Weld Seamless Pipe Fittings," GB/T14383 "Forged Steel Socket-Weld Pipe Fittings," GB/T14626 "Forged Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings," and GB/T13401 "Steel Plate Butt-Weld Pipe Fitt

How to store stainless steel tees
Stainless steel tees are high-performance, corrosion-resistant pipe fittings. While there are significant differences between tees and elbows, tees are widely used in pipeline construction. Despite their excellent corrosion resistance, care must be taken during storage to prevent quality issues.
