Why Is Stainless Steel Flange Special

Here are several reasons why stainless steel flange is special.

Stainless steel flange has the delicate performance of erosion resistance, so it can make structure parts forever connect with the integrity of the project plan. Chromium stainless steel involves mechanical strength and high extensibility, and it is easy to be processed and manufactured of parts so that it can meet the needs of architects and structure planning personnel. All metal and oxygen react in atmosphere. The oxide film is formed in general situation. Unfortunately, the common iron oxide on the carbon steel continues to oxidize. The corrosion has been expanding to the atmosphere, eventually forms holes. It can manipulate paint or metal that can be resistant to oxidation such as zinc, chromium and nickel to ensure that the carbon steel condition by electroplating.

Stainless steel flange can not happen to erosion, pitting, corrosion or abrasion. In the pipeline system, stainless steel flange pipe is the fitting that can change the pipeline line mark’s purpose. According to the angle, there are three most commonly used angles: 45 °, 90 ° and 180 °. There are other flanges with abnormal angle according to the need of engineering, such as 60°. 


Materials of flange contain cast iron, stainless steel, alloy steel, forged cast iron, carbon steel, nonferrous metal and plastic, etc. And styles of the pipe unity are: direct welding (the most common style) flange unity and threaded and socket unity, etc. According to the production process, flange can be divided into welding flange, stamp flange, forged flange, etc. That is commonly used adjacent fittings in pipeline placement and is used for adjacent pipe bend. Other names are 90 degrees of flange, elbow bend, etc.
