Slip-On Flange — Technical Data Sheet

Specification

Materials

Typical applications

• Cooling water, fire water and utility piping
• Low-pressure process lines
• Installations where easy fit-up matters more than fatigue life

Manufacturing

• Raw material: forging-quality billets or bars from approved mills, verified by chemical analysis and PMI on alloy and stainless grades.
• Forming: closed-die or open-die forging, followed by rough machining.
• Heat treatment: normalising, normalising and tempering, quench and temper, or solution annealing as the material specification requires, with recorded furnace charts.
• Machining: CNC turning and drilling to ASME B16.5 / B16.47 dimensions and tolerances.
• Facing finish: serrated spiral or concentric finish of 3.2–6.3 µm Ra (125–250 µin) on raised and flat faces; 1.6 µm Ra (63 µin) maximum on ring-joint groove side walls.

Inspection and testing

• Chemical analysis and mechanical tests (tensile, hardness; Charpy impact for low-temperature grades) per heat and heat-treatment lot.
• 100% visual and dimensional inspection against ASME B16.5 / B16.47.
• Ultrasonic, magnetic-particle or dye-penetrant examination when specified.
• Positive material identification (PMI) on stainless and alloy steel.
• Intergranular corrosion test to ASTM A262 Practice E for stainless grades when specified.
• Third-party inspection at our works as required by the order.

Marking

Hard-stamped on the rim to ASME B16.5 / MSS SP-25: manufacturer's mark, size, class, facing, bore / schedule, material grade, heat number and standard.

Documentation

Mill test certificate to EN 10204 3.1 (3.2 with third-party inspection on request), dimensional inspection report, heat-treatment record where applicable, and NDT reports as specified. IBR certification on request.

Packing

Rust-preventive coating on machined surfaces, plastic end / face protectors, and seaworthy wooden cases or pallets marked with PO line, size, heat number and quantity.
