Overview
Flanges are flat, typically circular discs with evenly spaced holes around the perimeter. They are used to connect pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment to form a piping system. Flanges are usually made of metal (such as stainless steel, carbon steel, or aluminum), although they can also be made of plastic or other materials depending on the application.The primary purpose of flanges is to provide a method of connecting and sealing two or more components of a piping system. They allow for easy assembly and disassembly of piping systems, making maintenance and repairs more manageable. Flanges also provide support and reinforcement to the joint, helping to prevent leaks and maintain structural integrity under pressure.
