Weld neck flanges, offered by Radhe Steel, are a preferred choice for high-pressure applications, especially where stress distribution and stability are essential.
Recognizable by their long, tapered hub, these flanges are designed to be butt-welded to a pipe, allowing smooth transitions in flow and reducing turbulence. The tapered design distributes stress evenly from the pipe to the flange, making it suitable for conditions with high-pressure or variable forces.
Typically, weld neck flanges feature a "raised face" or "ring-type joint" surface, enhancing the seal quality, especially with metal gaskets for critical applications.
