A Slip-on flange is a common way of pipe connection. It is connected by coating a layer of lubricant on the flange to make the pipe slide on the flange. Its main function is to connect the pipe so that it can smoothly transport fluids. During the operation of the pipeline, due to the influence of temperature, pressure, and other factors, the pipeline will deform and vibrate. If there is no suitable connection device, it will cause leakage and rupture of the pipeline. The slip-on flange is designed to solve this problem, it can adapt to the deformation and vibration of the pipeline, so as to ensure the stability and safety of the pipeline. The advantages and scope of use are introduced below.
First of all, the slip-on flange has a high sealing performance. It uses a rubber sealing ring, which can effectively prevent water leakage, air leakage, and other problems at the pipe connection. Moreover, the material of the sealing ring can be selected according to different media, which ensures the reliability of the connection.
Secondly, the installation and removal of the slip-on flange is very convenient. Because of its relatively simple structure, you only need to align the flange and the pipe, and then fix it with bolts. Moreover, it is also very easy to disassemble, just need to remove the bolts to separate the pipes.
Again, slip-on flange has a wide range of applications. It can connect pipes of different materials and diameters, and it can also connect pipes of different pressure levels. This makes it a very practical way to connect pipes.
Finally, compared with other pipe connection methods, the material cost and installation cost of the slip-on flange are relatively low, which makes it widely used in engineering.
First of all, the slip-on flange is suitable for various piping systems, including water, gas, oil, steam, etc. It can connect pipes of different materials, such as steel pipes, cast iron pipes, copper pipes, plastic pipes, etc. Therefore, it is widely used in construction, chemical industry, petroleum, pharmaceutical, and other industries.
Secondly, the slip-on flange is suitable for piping systems of various pressure levels. It can withstand high-pressure and high-temperature piping systems, and can also be used in low-pressure and low-temperature piping systems. Therefore, it is used in piping systems of different pressure levels.
Again, the slip-on flange is suitable for various pipe connection methods. It can connect pipes of different diameters in the same piping system, and it can also connect pipes between different piping systems. In addition, it can also connect valves, pumps, and other equipment in the pipeline system.
Finally, it also has a certain adjustment function. Since the slip-on flange can be disassembled and installed at the pipe connection, the flow and pressure in the pipe system can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the flange.
In short, the slip-on flange is a very practical pipe connection device. Its advantages are convenient connection, easy disassembly, convenient maintenance, wide application range, and various application scenarios. It is a very important connection method.
