Carbon steel A36 flanges are structural elements in pipe systems and industrial applications. These flanges are made of carbon steel grade A36 and are highly weldable, formable, and versatile. They are commonly used to connect pipes, valves, and fittings, ensuring a secure seal and facilitating system assembly and disassembly. A36 carbon steel flanges are widely utilized in sectors such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, power generation, and construction due to their durability, strength, and low cost.

There are several types of Carbon Steel A36 Flanges, which two are explained and rest of the rest are mentioned in the table below. Threaded Flanges: These flanges have internal threads that allow them to be screwed onto the pipe or fitting. They are commonly used in low-pressure applications where welding is not preferred or feasible. Socket Weld Flanges: Socket weld flanges have a recessed area (socket) into which the pipe end fits. The pipe is then welded to the flange's socket, providing a robust, leak-proof connection.

Connecting pipes: They facilitate the connection of pipes, valves, and fittings in piping systems. Supporting structural integrity: Flanges help maintain the structural integrity of pipelines, ensuring stability and reliability. Controlling fluid flow: They regulate and control the flow of fluids in pipelines and process systems. Sealing connections: Flanges provide a secure seal between different components, preventing leaks and minimizing the risk of contamination. Supporting equipment: Flanges support mounting equipment such as pumps, valves, and instruments in industrial installations.
