What is Socket-Weld Flange?

A socket-weld flange is a type of flange that has a recessed area to insert the end of a pipe, creating a smooth and flush connection. The flange is then welded on the outer side to provide strength and stability. Socket-weld flanges are particularly suitable for small-diameter, high-pressure piping systems.

Types of Socket-Weld Flange

Raised Face Socket-Weld Flange

Featuring a raised surface around the bore, the raised face socket-weld flange ensures proper alignment and ease of installation.

Flat Face Socket-Weld Flange

The flat face socket-weld flange has a flat surface, making it suitable for applications where space is limited and a smooth, flush fit is required.

Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Socket-Weld Flange

RTJ socket-weld flanges come with a ring groove to accommodate a metal gasket, providing enhanced sealing in high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
