CLASS 2500 FLANGE (MM), 2½"", ASTM A105N, ASME B16.5
Available materials: ASTM A105N, ASTM A350 LF2 Cl 1, ASTM A182 F304/304L, ASTM A182 F316/316L, ASTM A182 F11 Cl 2, ASTM A182 F22 Cl 3, ASTM A182 F51 (Duplex), ASTM A182 F53 (Super Duplex), ASTM A694 F52 / F60, IS 2062 E250 (plate).
Notes
- Dimensions are in millimetres unless stated otherwise.
- Flange thickness tf and length through hub Y do not include the 7 mm raised face.
- Blind flanges have the same outside diameter, thickness tf and drilling as the other flange types of the same size and class.
- ASME B16.5 has no Class 2500 slip-on or socket weld flange; the slip-on column applies to threaded flanges only.
- The bore of a weld neck or socket weld flange is machined to match the inside diameter of the pipe schedule stated in the order.
- Bolt holes are tabulated in inches in ASME B16.5; the millimetre values shown are direct conversions (bolt diameter plus ⅛").
- Stud bolt lengths do not include the height of the points. Weights are approximate catalogue values and vary with bore and manufacturer.

Frequently asked questions
What are the main types of pipe flanges?
Weld neck (WN), slip-on (SO), blind (BL), socket weld (SW), threaded (THD), lap joint (LJ) and plate flanges. Special types include orifice, long weld neck, reducing flanges and spectacle blinds.
When should I use a weld neck flange instead of a slip-on?
Use weld neck flanges for high pressure, high or cycling temperature, and lines with vibration or fatigue loading. The tapered hub and full-penetration butt weld spread stress smoothly. Slip-on flanges are cheaper and easier to align, but their fatigue life is roughly one third of a WN.
What does Class 150, 300 or 600 mean on a flange?
The ASME class is a pressure-rating designation, not a pressure in psi. The allowable pressure depends on the material group and temperature. A Class 150 A105 flange is rated 19.6 bar at 38 °C but 13.8 bar at 200 °C.
Is a 150# flange rated for 150 psi?
No. A Class 150 carbon-steel flange is rated about 285 psi (19.6 bar) at ambient temperature, and about 170 psi (11.7 bar) at 260 °C. The "150" is a class number.
