Application of Flange

Flange is a common connection used in mechanical equipment. Its main role is to connect different mechanical equipment or pipelines together, in order to carry out energy transmission, liquid transmission, gas transmission and other operations. First, let's understand how it works.

Flange connection has two important components: flange and gasket. The flange is the key part of the connection. It usually consists of two plates and a number of bolts. The first tablet is mounted on one device, while the second tablet is inversely mounted on the other. There are a number of small and threaded holes between the two plates, along which bolts and fastening nuts can join and secure the two plates.

After tightening, install a washer between the two ends of the flange. The purpose of the gasket is to compress fresh from the middle of the two flange plates in order to seal the interface between the two flange plates and prevent liquid or gas from leaking out or entering.

Next, let's look at what Flange is used for. The main purpose of flanges is to connect mechanical equipment, main engines and various pipes. May be in many industries, such as oil, gas, chemical, water treatment, shipbuilding, aviation, military, medicine and other industries, will find the use of flange exists in large quantities, and play an important role. They can be used in filters, pumps, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, steam turbines, blowers and some other equipment. In fact, flanges are used in many industrial applications to connect pipes and equipment over long distances.
