What should you pay attention to when purchasing expander flanges?
Expansion flange, used to increase the bore diameter of a pipe from any particular point to another point in order to connect the pipe to any other mechanical equipment like pumps, compressors and valves which are found to have different inlet sizes.
Expander flange is a special purpose industrial pipe flange designed to provide expanded connections to adjoining pipe or fittings.
We manufacture & supply expander flanges in nominal size 2″-30″ and pressure up to 6000# to meet your piping needs.
What is expander flange
The ASME B16.5 expansion flange is a welded neck pipe ridge used to create pipe dimensions at rib joints.
It provides a reliable method for mechanical components, siphons and valves if you have limited space or need to discuss more basic pipe sizing on a very important level.
Stainless steel expander spine prevents ribs and reducers from getting during use.
Expanded flanges are similar to necked weld flanges, but the hub is enlarged to a larger size (one or two sizes).
It provides a convenient way to access equipment, pumps and valves if you have limited space or simply need to connect to a larger pipe size.
It can replace the use of flanges and reducers.
Where are expander flange used?
Expansion flanges are used in chemical and petrochemical processing.
Expansion flanges are used in electronic products. Expansion flanges are used in processing equipment to maintain product purity when handling foods, synthetic fibers.
Expansion flanges are used in marine and offshore engineering.
Expansion flanges are available in a variety of sizes and materials.
Pressure rating specifications for expander flange
Expansion flanges are pressure rated and sized to ANSI or ASME B16.5 specifications, which are primarily available in raised or flat faces (RF or FF).
Reducing flanges, also known as reducing flanges, have the exact opposite function compared to expansion flanges, meaning they are used to reduce the bore diameter of the pipe.
The bore size of the running tube can be easily reduced, but not more than 1 or 2 sizes.
If an attempt is made to reduce beyond this range, a solution based on a combination of butt-welded reducers and standard flanges should be used.
