A105 B16.5 Flange

SSM provides high-quality flanges made of ASTM A105 material and manufactured according to ASME B16.5 standards. These flanges are commonly used in pipeline connections in industries such as oil, chemical, power generation, and shipbuilding.

High Quality A105 B16.5 Flange

ASME B16.5 A105 Flange is a flange manufactured in accordance with the B16.5 standard of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), using low-carbon steel forging material that complies with the ASTM A105 standard. This material possesses excellent welding performance and high strength, and its design ensures stability and safety under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. It is widely used in pipeline systems in industries such as petroleum, chemical, power generation, and shipbuilding.

  • Size: 1/2″ – 24″, 150#-2500#
  • Producing Standard: ASME B16.5
  • Materials: ASTM A105/A105N

ASTM A105 is a type of carbon structural steel defined by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard. It is primarily used in the manufacture of pipeline components and valves. Here is a basic introduction to ASTM A105 carbon steel:

More Information For A105 B16.5 Flange

SSM supplies A105 ASME B16.5 flanges, which can be selected according to your requirements based on the following classifications and applications:

Classification by Connection Type

  • ASME B16.5 A105 Slip-on Flange: The flange is slid onto the pipe and welded.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Welding Neck Flange: A flange with a neck, welded to the pipe.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Blind Flange: A flange with no hole, used to seal the end of a pipe.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Threaded Flange: Flanged with threads to connect to the pipe.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Socket Weld Flange: Suitable for small diameter pipes, welded to the pipe through a socket.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Lap Joint Flange: A flange welded to the pipe, often used with a loose flange.

Classification by Seal Face Type

  • ASME B16.5 A105 Flat Face Flange: The seal face is flat.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Raised Face Flange: The seal face is raised.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Ring Joint Flange: Uses a metal ring as a sealing element.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 Tongue and Groove Flange: One flange has a tongue, the other has a groove.

Classification by Pressure Rating

  • ASME B16.5 A105 150#: Suitable for lower pressure pipe systems.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 300#: Suitable for medium pressure pipe systems.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 600#: Suitable for high pressure pipe systems.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 900#: Suitable for higher pressure pipe systems.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 1500#: Suitable for very high pressure pipe systems.
  • ASME B16.5 A105 2500#: Suitable for extreme high pressure pipe systems.

Classification by Nominal Diameter

ASME B16.5 A105 flanges are typically classified based on Nominal Pipe Size (NPS). Below are some common size classifications:

  • Small Diameter Flanges: Nominal diameter typically ranges from 1/2 inch to 2 inches. Used for small pipe systems or applications requiring fine control.
  • Medium Diameter Flanges: Nominal diameter typically ranges from 3 inches to 10 inches. Common in medium-scale industrial pipe systems.
  • Large Diameter Flanges: Nominal diameter typically ranges from 12 inches to 24 inches. Suitable for large industrial pipe systems, such as those in oil, chemical, and power industries.
