Weld Neck Flange
High-Integrity Connection for Pressure Piping
A Weld Neck Flange (WN Flange) is a precision-engineered flange designed for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. Characterized by its long tapered hub, this flange provides superior stress distribution and is ideal for use in critical pipelines and process equipment.
Tapered Hub Design
Ensures smooth transition from flange thickness to pipe wall thickness, minimizing stress and reducing fatigue.Secure Welded Connection
Butt-welded to the pipe, creating a permanent, leak-proof seal ideal for hazardous or high-demand systems.Material Options
Carbon Steel (ASTM A105)
Stainless Steel (304, 316, 316L)
Alloy Steel, Duplex, Super Duplex
Other exotic alloys available upon request

Q: Why choose a weld neck flange over a slip-on or blind flange?
A: Weld neck flanges provide excellent strength, stress distribution, and leak prevention, making them ideal for high-pressure and temperature applications.
Q: Do you offer material test certificates (MTC)?
A: Yes, all weld neck flanges come with MTCs and can be inspected by third-party agencies like TUV, SGS, or BV on request.
Q: Can these flanges be used for corrosive environments?
A: Yes. Select stainless steel or duplex options for enhanced corrosion resistance in harsh environments.
