Flanges are connecting elements used to join pipes, valves, and other equipment in piping systems, providing a method for secure and often easily dismountable connections. They facilitate maintenance, inspection, and modification by allowing for the disconnection and reassembly of components without the need for welding. Flanges also ensure a leak-tight seal between connected parts using gaskets and bolts.
Here's a more detailed look at the function of flanges:
1. Connecting Piping Components:
Flanges enable the joining of various pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment to form a complete piping system.
They offer a reliable and flexible way to connect different components, allowing for easy assembly and disassembly.
Flanges are commonly used for connecting piping systems with
