Alloy steel slip-on flanges are fittings used to connect pipes or other components in a piping system. They are designed with a slip-on feature that allows them to slide over the pipe before being welded into place. This design simplifies the alignment process, making them easier to install compared to weld neck flanges. Made from various alloy steels, these flanges offer improved mechanical properties, such as higher strength, toughness, and resistance to wear and corrosion, compared to standard carbon steels. Alloy steel slip-on flanges are often used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation. Their ability to withstand harsh conditions and maintain structural integrity makes them a reliable choice for demanding environments.
