Flange in Oil and Gas : for Peak Performance ! - Stainless Steel Pipe and Fittings

UMA flange in oil and gas play a critical role. In these industries, every connection in the piping system must be secure and requires extreme reliability. Flanges de aço inoxidável connect pipes, valves and equipment and ensure flawless performance of tubos de aço inoxidável e conexões para tubos de aço inoxidável.

What is a Flange in Oil and Gas? The Backbone of Piping!

Flanges in oil and gas create a strong, leak-proof joint. Flanges are used for system assembly and are easily removed for maintenance. They are bolted together and a flange gasket form a seal between them. These components ensure the safe and efficient transportation of hydrocarbons.

Why Flanges Are Vital in Oil and Gas

Ensures Leak-proof Seal

Flanges with gaskets create a tight seal to prevent leakage of hazardous fluids. Protects people and the environment.

Ease of Maintenance

Flanged connections allow for easy disconnection of piping, simplifying inspection and repair.

Accommodate System Expansion

Flanges allow for a modular design that allows engineers to easily add or remove sections, increasing the flexibility of the piping system.

Handling High Pressures and Temperatures

Flanges are designed for extreme conditions, they can withstand huge pressures and large temperature fluctuations.

Material Versatility

Flanges are available in a wide range of materials, including various grades of stainless steel. Suitable for a wide range of ambientes corrosivos.

Common Materials for Flange in Oil and Gas

Material Type	Principais características	Typical Application in O&G
Aço carbono	Cost-effective, high strength	General service, low corrosion
Stainless Steel (304, 316)	Corrosion resistance, high temp	General process, corrosive fluids
Duplex&Super Duplex (2205, 2507)	High strength, SCC/pitting resistance	Sour service, offshore, high chloride
Ligas de níquel (625, C276)	Extreme corrosion, high temp/pressure	Highly corrosive wells, processing
Alloy Steel (F11, F22)	High temperature, creep resistance	High-temp refinery, power plants

Flange Types & Their Application in Oil & Gas

Flange Type	Description & Primary Use	Selection Considerations
Flange de Pescoço de Solda	Long tapered hub, welded to pipe.	High pressure, high temperature, critical service.
Deslizamento no flange	Slips over pipe, welded inside/out.	Lower pressure, easy alignment, less costly.
Flange Cego	Solid disc, closes pipe end.	Sealing off lines, pressure testing, future connection.
Flange de solda de soquete	Pipe inserted into socket, fillet welded.	Small pipe sizes, high pressure, no internal weld bead.
Flange roscada	Screwed onto pipe.	Low pressure, non-cyclic, non-welded applications.
Flange de junta sobreposta	Uses a stub end with loose backing flange.	Easy alignment, frequent disassembly, stainless lining.
Flange de orifício	Built-in pressure taps for flow measurement.	Metering stations, precise flow control.
Flange RTJ	Uses a metal ring gasket for high-pressure seal.	High pressure, high temperature, severe service.
Flange de óculos	Figure-8 shape for line isolation (blind/spacer).	Quick line blinding/opening for maintenance/safety.
Flange de âncora	Welded directly to pipe, anchors pipe movement.	Prevents pipe movement, stress relief at pumps.
Flanges DIN	Based on EU standards.	European markets, specific dimensional needs.
