FAQ

The right dimensions depend on:

  • Nominal Pipe Size (NPS)
  • Pressure Rating (Class 1500)
  • Standard Flange Face Type (e.g., Raised Face, Flat Face)

You can refer to the ANSI / ASME B16.5 standard or consult manufacturers’ dimension charts for detailed specifications based on NPS and pressure class.

In addition to ANSI / ASME B16.5, other relevant standards include:

  • ASME B31.3 for Process Piping
  • ASME BPVC Section VIII for Pressure Vessels
  • API 6A for Equipment Used in Oil and Gas Drilling
