What is Nipoflange

A Nipoflange is a branch outlet fitting with an integral flange connection and an extended nipple-style outlet body. It is commonly used when a pipeline requires a reinforced branch connection and a detachable flanged connection at the same time.

Compared with a standard welding outlet, a nipoflange provides easier installation for valves, instruments, equipment, or branch pipelines. Compared with a simple flange connection, it offers better branch reinforcement and a more compact structure.

Nipoflanges are widely used in oil and gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, power generation, refinery, and industrial piping systems.
