Socket weld flange is a common welding flange used for connecting flange connections in pipeline systems. Here are some basic introductions about socket welding flanges:

Structure and characteristics

The socket welding flange has two circular flange plates, one of which has a groove (bottom groove) in the center, and the other flange plate has a protrusion (bottom groove) in the center. These two flanges are connected by inserting the bottom groove into the bearing groove and then welding it. Socket welding flanges are commonly used in small diameter and low-pressure pipeline systems.

Applicable scope

Socket welding flanges are mainly used in low-pressure and small diameter pipeline systems, and are generally suitable for pressure ratings of 150 pounds per inch ² The following occasions. This type of flange is commonly used in liquid and gas conveying systems and is not suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature working conditions.

Advantages

One of the main advantages of socket welded flanges is their relatively easy installation. Compared with some other types of welding flanges, socket welding flanges do not require the use of bolts and nuts, so welding connections can be completed more quickly. In addition, due to the welding points being located inside the flange, it is relatively easy to maintain the sealing of the flange connection.

Welding method

The connection of socket welding flanges is mainly achieved by aligning the bottom slots of the two flange plates with the bottom slots, and then welding. Usually, the connection is made by butt welding, and the weld can be made on the outside or inside of the flange.

Notes

When using socket welding flanges, it is necessary to ensure that the materials of the pipeline and flange match, and that the pressure rating of the flange meets the requirements of the system. In addition, attention should be paid to avoiding overheating during the welding process to prevent damage to flange or pipeline materials.
Overall, socket welding flanges are a relatively simple connection method for installation under small diameter and low pressure conditions, suitable for some lightweight pipeline systems. When selecting pipeline connection methods, various factors need to be comprehensively considered based on specific engineering requirements and environmental conditions.
