Stainless Steel Flange
Stainless Steel Flanges Manufacturer in China
A stainless steel pipe flange is a mechanical connector that joins pipes, valves, pumps, and equipment. Stainless steel flanges are typically circular discs with a central bore and bolt hole pattern. Two components join securely with a gasket between them to create the seal. It creates a secure, leak-tight environment to ensure safe, efficient fluid transport.
Profab stainless steel flanged fittings, unlike a permanent weld, provide a critical access point for cleaning, inspection, maintenance, or modification. This access is indispensable in many industrial environments.

Flange Type | Primary Design Feature | Connection Method | Ideal Application | Pressure Suitability | Trade-Off/Limitation |
Weld Neck | Long tapered hub | Butt weld | High-pressure, critical systems (oil/gas, power generation) | High (Classes 150-2500) | Higher cost, complex installation, requires skilled welding |
Slip-On | Slides over pipe end | Two fillet welds | Low-pressure systems (HVAC, water treatment) | Low to medium | Lower strength, not suitable for critical applications with high stress |
Blind | Solid disc, no bore | Bolted | Sealing the end of a pipeline | All classes | Primarily for system termination or isolation, not for flow |
Threaded | Internal threads | Screwed onto pipe threads | Low-pressure, non-welded systems (hazardous environments) | Low | Limited to low pressure, not ideal for high-stress applications |
Socket Weld | Counterbore for pipe insertion | Fillet weld | Small-diameter, high-pressure pipes with limited space | High | Less total space required, but fluid must not be corrosive |
Lap Joint | Two-part design with a stub end | Bolted | Systems requiring frequent disassembly (food/beverage) | Low to medium | Higher cost than slip-on, but offers flexibility and ease of assembly |
Orifice | Machined pressure taps | Butt weld, threaded, or slip-on | Flow measurement (oil/gas, chemical processing) | Varies by design | Specialized purpose, used only for flow metering applications |
Frequently Asked Questions...
How to choose your ss flanges?
- Corrosion Resistance: The primary consideration is the nature of the fluid medium. The material must be able to withstand the specific corrosive agents present, such as acids, alkalis, or chlorides.
- Pressure and Temperature Requirements: The operational conditions directly determine the required mechanical strength and heat resistance. High-temperature applications, for example, may necessitate an H-grade material to prevent warping and system compromise.
- Weldability: The type of flange and installation method must be considered. For applications with numerous welded joints, the superior weldability of L-grades may be necessary to ensure long-term structural integrity.
What is the difference between your 304L and 316L stainless steel flanges?
While both are highly corrosion-resistant, our 316L flanges contain molybdenum, making them superior for applications in highly acidic or chloride-rich environments, such as marine and chemical processing.
