ASTM A182 Threaded Flange

 

ASTM A182 threaded flange is a flange manufactured according to A182 standard, and its connection method is threaded connection. It is a commonly used connector in pipeline systems, used to connect pipelines, valves, pumps and other equipment, so that fluids can be smoothly transmitted within the system.

ASTM A182 is the standard for forged or rolled alloy steel and stainless steel pipe fittings, flanges, valves, accessories for use in high temperature environments. This standard covers a variety of material grades, such as F304, F316, F321, F11, F22, etc. The specific material selection depends on the application environment.

Sealing Surface Type of ASTM A182 Threaded Flange

The sealing surface types of ASTM A182 threaded flanges include raised face (RF),Flat Face Full Face (FF), Male Face and Female Face (MFM), tongue-and-groove face (TG), and ring joint face (RJ).

The most commonly used sealing surface of ASTM A182 threaded flanges is the raised face. The raised face sealing surface has a raised annular table on the sealing surface of the flange. This structure increases the reliability of the seal to a certain extent. It is widely used in various medium and low pressure media pipeline systems, including general media transportation pipelines in chemical, petroleum and other industries.

 

Comparison with Other Flange Types

Flange Type Connection Method Pressure Suitability Welding Required Typical Applications
Threaded Flange Screwed connection Low pressure (150#, 300#) ❌ No welding Small pipes, hazardous areas
Slip-On Flange Fillet welded Low to medium pressure ✅ Yes Water and wastewater systems
Weld Neck Flange Butt-welded High pressure ✅ Yes High-temperature, high-pressure applications
Blind Flange No bore (sealing flange) High pressure ❌ No welding Pipe end closures
Socket Weld Flange Socket welded Medium to high pressure ✅ Yes Small-diameter, high-pressure pipes
