A stainless steel weld neck flange is a circular fitting designed for connecting pipes, typically made of stainless steel, that features a long, cylindrical neck that is welded to the pipe for a strong, permanent connection. These flanges are particularly suited for high-pressure, high-temperature applications due to their enhanced strength and corrosion resistance.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Key Characteristics:
Material:
Typically made from stainless steel grades like 304 or 316, offering excellent corrosion resistance.
Neck:
The prominent neck acts as a transition piece, distributing stress from the flange to the pipe, reducing stress concentrations at the flange's base.
Welding:
The neck is designed for butt welding to the pipe, creating a robust and leak-proof connection.
Raised Face:
Often features a raised face, which provides a larger surface area for bolting to another flange or for direct sealing in some applications.
Applications:
Commonly used in high-pressure and high-temperature piping systems, including chemical processing, refineries, and other industries.

Jirawala Steel & Engineering Co. is High-quality Manufacturers and Exporters of Stainless Steel Flanges, Alloy Steel Flanges, Monel Flanges, Carbon Steel Flanges, Nickel Alloys Flanges, etc. These Flanges are manufactured using high-quality raw materials which are controlled and tested by our experts.Flanges are usually welded or screwed. Flanged joints are made by bolting together two flanges with a gasket between them to provide a seal. A flange is a method of connecting pipes, valves, pumps and other equipment to form a piping system.
