What Are ASME B16.5 Flanges?

ASME B16.5 flanges are standardized flanges used to connect pipes, valves, pumps, and other piping components. These flanges are available in sizes ranging from 1/2″ to 24″ and pressure classes from 150# to 2500#. They are engineered to provide leak-proof connections and ensure reliability in a wide range of industrial applications.

Key Features and Advantages

Global Standardization

Compliant with ASME B16.5 specifications for quality and reliability.
Ensures compatibility across diverse piping systems worldwide.

Versatile Design

Suitable for various pressure classes and temperature ranges.
Available in multiple face types: Raised Face (RF), Flat Face (FF), and Ring-Type Joint (RTJ).

Material Versatility

Offered in carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and specialty materials.
Tailored for corrosion resistance and durability in specific environments.

Types of ASME B16.5 Flanges

Weld Neck Flanges

Features a tapered hub for structural reinforcement.
Ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.

Slip-On Flanges

Easy to install and align.
Suitable for low-pressure systems.

Blind Flanges

Used to seal the end of a pipeline or vessel.
Provides reliable isolation for maintenance and testing.

Threaded Flanges

Screw-on design eliminates the need for welding.
Preferred for low-pressure and non-critical applications.

Socket Weld Flanges

Designed for small-diameter, high-pressure systems.
Ensures a secure connection with minimal turbulence.

Lap Joint Flanges

Compatible with stub ends for easy assembly and disassembly.
Reduces overall material costs for expensive piping systems.

Applications Across Industries

Oil and Gas

Widely used in pipelines, refineries, and offshore platforms.
Ensures secure connections in high-pressure systems.

Chemical Processing

Resistant to corrosion and extreme temperatures.
Used in chemical reactors and process pipelines.

Power Generation

Applied in steam, cooling water, and condensate systems.
Ensures durability in thermal and nuclear power plants.

Water Treatment

Suitable for desalination plants and municipal water systems.
Provides reliable performance in both low-pressure and high-pressure applications.

Food and Pharmaceutical Industries

Stainless steel variants meet stringent hygiene and purity standards.
Ideal for high-purity applications requiring frequent inspection.
