Flange Gasket, A flange gasket is a gasket located between 2 flanges with the task of creating a connection between the joints, filling the minimal gaps of the flange. Then it forms a tight seal to prevent leakage of the medium.
* Popular types of flange gaskets today
Flange rubber gasket
Flange Rubber Gasket is made from a synthetic rubber that seals the two pipe flanges together, preventing flange leakage.
Popular types of rubber flange gaskets: NBR rubber flange gasket, black EPDM rubber flange gasket, VITON rubber flange gasket, Neoprene rubber flange gasket, SBR rubber flange gasket, PTFE coated EPDM gasket, white EPDM rubber flange gasket, white Silicon rubber flange gasket, red Silicon rubber flange gasket, etc.
Teflon flange gasket
PTFE flange gaskets, also known as Teflon gaskets, are short for Polytetrafluoroethylene. Teflon gaskets are highly flexible and have excellent chemical and heat resistance.
Teflon flange gaskets are suitable for hot water, chemical, and oil and gas pipelines due to their good chemical and heat resistance.
Flange Lead gasket
Lead gaskets are made from lead pads or heat-resistant graphite sheets. In terms of basic shape, lead gaskets are similar to other types of gaskets such as rubber gaskets, Teflon gaskets, etc., but are different in materials. Flange lead gaskets are made from graphite reinforced with a 0.05mm thick layer of SS316/316L stainless steel and are manufactured according to JIS, DIN, ANSI, and BS flange standards.
Asbestos flange gasket
An asbestos flange gasket is a product processed and cut from an asbestos gasket sheet to seal between the flanges of industrial valves and pipes, to prevent the medium from leaking into the environment.
Bolt and nut accessories for flanges
Bolts and nuts are indispensable accessories when using flanges. Let’s continue reading the article to better understand flange accessories!
Flange bolt accessories
A bolt is a metal piece with a cylindrical body and grooves similar to the grooves inside a nut. A bolt is inserted into a hole in the circular threads of a nut. Where the grooves of the bolt fit into the grooves of the nut.
In the oil and gas and chemical industries, Stud bolts and Hex bolts are commonly used to connect flanges.
- A stud bolt is a threaded rod with 2 heavy hex nuts.
- Hex bolts are mechanical products with a cylindrical and threaded body. One end of the bolt is hexagonal and larger than the other end. Hex bolts are used with nuts for easy disassembly or adjustment.
Nut
Nuts, also known as nuts or nuts, are mechanical connecting parts with threaded holes. Nuts are always used with bolts to clamp two or more parts together. The two parts are combined by thread friction, the moderate tension of the bolt, and the compression of the part.
Nuts do not have a fixed shape but are very diverse, but the most widely used is the hexagonal nut. In addition, there are cylindrical nuts, nose nuts, and some other types. The common point of all types of nuts is that they are galvanized to increase corrosion resistance.
Flange Stub End Fittings
Stub End is also a flange accessory and pipe fitting; they are used together with the Lap Joint Flange to replace the fixed welding flange. With this combination, the Lap Joint Flange can slide on the pipe and rotate around the Stub End to easily adjust the pipe direction during installation.
When working related to flanges and flange accessories, we will touch on technical parameters: standards, specifications, drawings,… To understand better, you can refer to the stainless steel flange accessories catalog.
Lubricating Oil
Lubricating oil is used to lubricate flange components to reduce friction and improve system durability.
