- Offers a low turbulence and transition flow.
- Better connection with piping systems.
- Good mechanical strength and life.
- Applicable in severe and 24-hour service.
- Produced at a narrow dimensional tolerance.
- In numerous materials and pressure classes.
- Bores and custom neck lengths are available.
Technical Aspects
Long Weld Neck Flanges have been created to butt-weld directly to the pipe forming a strong and permanent joint. The long hub is also a structural extension of the pipe that has the effect of evenly distributing the stress throughout the joint and reducing the chances of failure.
These types of flanges are especially suitable in the systems that are subjected to high vibration, high pressure surges, and thermal expansion. Their construction also enables them to sustain accurate bore orientation, which is imperative in keeping the flow efficiency and erosion reduction in high velocity applications.
Reactors, heat exchangers, columns, and critical process lines commonly have Long Weld Neck Flanges.
