Slip On Stainless Steel Pipe Flanges In Piping Systems

Slip On Stainless Steel Pipe Flanges Used In Piping Systems

Slip-on stainless steel pipe flanges are a type of flange commonly used in piping systems. They are designed to slide over the pipe and then be welded in place.

Slip-on flanges are easy to install as they simply slide over the pipe end. They are then welded to the pipe using fillet welding on the inside and outside of the flange. The welds provide strength and secure the flange to the pipe.

Slip-on flanges offer several advantages, including easy installation and alignment, cost-effectiveness, and versatility. They are suitable for low-pressure and non-critical applications. Slip-on flanges also allow for easy disassembly and maintenance of the piping system.

Slip On Flange vs Weld Neck Flange

Slip On flange (SO flanges) are typically cheaper than Weld-Beck Flanges, which is why many customers tend to choose them. It is one of the common used flange for the low pressure, medium temperature pipeline systems.
