Home Socket Weld Flange Socket Weld Neck Flange Function: Features a recessed area where the pipe is inserted and fillet welded, creating a strong, secure connection. Key Benefits: Provides a robust connection suitable for high-pressure systems.Ideal for small-diameter piping, ensuring durability and reliability.Stress Distribution: The tapered hub helps distribute stress between the pipe and the flange, reducing the risk of stress concentration. Applications: Commonly used in high-pressure hydraulic lines where secure joints are critical.Suitable for steam lines where a strong connection is necessary to withstand high pressure and temperature.
