Steel Worlds Industries

Key Features:

Ease of Installation: Slip-on flanges are easy to install. They simply slide over the end of the pipe, align with the bolt holes, and are then welded to the pipe.
Cost-Effective: Typically less expensive than weld neck flanges because they require less machining and welding.
Versatile Materials: Available in materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and various grades of plastic, catering to a wide range of applications.

Common Types:

Standard Slip-On Flange: The most common type, used in general piping applications. It has a flat face and is suitable for moderate pressure and temperature applications.
Slip-On Flange with Raised Face: Features a raised face to provide a better seal and is used in higher pressure applications where additional sealing is needed.
Slip-On Flange with Threaded Bore: Includes internal threads for easy connection with threaded pipes or fittings.

Standards and Specifications:

ANSI/ASME B16.5: Standard for pipe flanges and flanged fittings, including slip-on flanges, specifying dimensions and tolerances.
ASTM A105: Specification for carbon steel forged fittings for piping applications.
ASTM A182: Standard for alloy and stainless steel pipe flanges, fittings, and valves.
ISO 9001: Quality management system standard ensuring consistent manufacturing and quality control.
