ASME B16.47 Series B Flange Dimensions

ASME B16.47 Series B (formerly API 605) covers large-diameter weld neck and blind flanges from NPS 26" to 60". This chart gives the dimensions in millimetres for Class 150 and 300.

Series B flanges are more compact and lighter, with more, smaller bolts; they are common on refinery and equipment connections where space and weight matter. Series A and Series B flanges of the same size and class are not interchangeable. Teshi Group manufactures both series as an OEM.

Notes

  • Dimensions are in millimetres unless stated otherwise.
  • Thickness and hub length exclude the raised face: 2 mm for Class 150 and 300.
  • Bolt holes are tabulated in inches in the standard; millimetre values are direct conversions.
  • Some dimensions do not increase uniformly with size (for example Class 300 thickness at NPS 54" and 60"). This follows the standard.

Reference information compiled from the published standard for convenience. It does not replace the current edition of the governing standard, which takes precedence. Verify critical dimensions and properties before design, purchase or fabrication. Teshi Engineers & Sales Promoters (P) Ltd accepts no liability for errors or omissions.

FAQ

ASME B16.47 Series B flange dimensions: common questions

What is the difference between ASME B16.47 Series A and Series B?

Series A (formerly MSS SP-44) is heavier and thicker with fewer, larger bolts. Series B (formerly API 605) is more compact with more, smaller bolts. They do not mate with each other.

Which flange types does ASME B16.47 cover?

Weld neck and blind flanges only, from NPS 26" to 60". Slip-on and other types in these sizes are made to other standards or to drawing.
