Flange

Flange, also known as flange flange or flange. The flange is a part that connects the shaft and the shaft, and is used for the connection between the pipe ends. It is also used in the equipment inlet and outlet for the connection between two devices, such as the reducer flange. The flange connection or flange joint refers to a detachable connection in which a flange, a gasket and a bolt are connected to each other as a group of combined sealing structures. Pipe flange refers to the flange used for piping in pipeline installations, and used on equipment refers to the inlet and outlet flanges of equipment. There are holes in the flange, and the bolts tightly connect the two flanges. The flanges are sealed with gaskets. Flange is divided into threaded connection (thread connection) flange, welding flange and clip flange. The flanges are used in pairs. Wire joint flanges can be used for low pressure pipelines, and welded flanges can be used for pressures above 4 kg. Add a gasket between the two flanges and tighten with bolts. Different pressure flanges have different thicknesses, and they use different bolts. When pumps and valves are connected to pipelines, the parts of these equipment and equipment are also made into corresponding flange shapes, also known as flange connections. Any connection parts that are bolted at the periphery of two planes and closed at the same time are generally referred to as "flange", such as the connection of ventilation ducts, this type of parts can be called "flange parts". However, this connection is only a part of the equipment, such as the connection between the flange and the water pump, it is difficult to call the water pump a "flange-type part". Relatively small ones, such as valves, can be called "flange parts".
