Pipe Flanges
A pipe flange is disc, collar or ring that attaches to pipe with
the purpose of providing increased support for strength, blocking off a
pipeline or implementing the attachment of more items. Pipe flanges are
usually welded or screwed to the pipe end and are connected with
bolts. A gasket is inserted between the two mating flanges to provide
a tighter seal. Pipe flanges are either custom with dimenions provided
by the customer or they are manufactured according to published
specifications. Several organizations and associations have published
specifications that provide dimensional information as well as pressure
specifications at different temperatures. Coastal Flange manufactures
custom flanges and stocks 6 basic types of pipe flanges. Although,
these are the 6 most common types of pipe flanges, Coastal Flange is a
custom flange manufacturer as well and is able to create just about any
type of flange necessary for your requirements. Please click on one of
the following pictures for a more detailed description of the pipe
flanges you are interested in. Each page also has a video that provides
a better understanding of how the pipe flanges are connected to the
pipe.
