01 · What is a Threaded Flange?

»»»»

Definition

A Threaded Flange (also called a screwed flange) is a type of pipe flange that has a tapered internal thread (NPT / BSP / BSPT) matching the external thread of the connected pipe. The flange is screwed onto the pipe without welding — making it ideal for hazardous, low-pressure or low-temperature services, or for pipework where welding is impractical.

Threaded flanges are commonly available with a Raised Face (RF) or Flat Face (FF) sealing surface and are typically used up to Class 600 pressure ratings. Higher classes (900 / 1500 / 2500) are also produced on request.

05 · Advantages of Threaded Flanges

»»»»
A

No Welding Required

Eliminates the need for on-site welding — ideal for explosive, flammable or low-temperature environments where hot work is prohibited.

B

Easy & Fast Installation

Simply screw the flange onto the matching pipe thread. Faster assembly, lower labor cost, easy maintenance and disassembly.

C

Self-Aligning & Adjustable

The threaded connection allows fine angular alignment of the pipe before final tightening — perfect for field-fit scenarios.

D

Cost-Effective for Low-Pressure

More economical than weld neck flanges for Class 150 / 300 low-pressure services, especially for small-bore and utility lines.

E

Reliable Sealing

RF or FF gasket face combined with tapered thread provides leak-tight sealing in standard industrial service conditions.

F

Wide Material Range

Available in carbon, alloy, stainless, duplex and nickel-alloy steels to suit corrosive, cryogenic and high-temperature service.

10 · Frequently Asked Questions

»»»»
Q1. When should I choose a threaded flange over a weld neck flange?

Use a threaded flange when the pipe material, service or job-site conditions make welding difficult or dangerous — such as stainless steel service where post-weld heat treatment is impractical, low-pressure utility lines, or hazardous-area installations where hot work is not permitted. For high-pressure, high-temperature or critical-service lines, prefer a weld neck flange.

Q2. What is the maximum pressure class you supply for threaded flanges?

Standard supply covers ASME B16.5 Class 150, 300 and 600. On request we can produce Class 900, 1500 and even 2500 threaded flanges from high-strength alloy steels such as A182 F11 / F22 / F91.

Q3. Do you support non-standard dimensions or custom drawings?

Yes — full OEM/ODM service. Send us your drawing, sample or detailed specification and our engineering team will quote within 24 hours. We routinely produce to DIN, GOST, JIS and customer-specific standards.

Q4. What threads are available?

Standard threads are NPT per ASME B1.20.1. BSP and BSPT per ISO 228 / ISO 7 are also available. Special threads (metric, ACME, API line pipe) can be machined on request.

Q5. What is your typical lead time?

Standard stock sizes in carbon steel ship within 7 days. Custom orders typically take 20–35 days depending on size, material and quantity. We also keep fast-track slots for urgent projects.

Q6. What certificates come with the shipment?

Each shipment includes EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 material certificate, dimensional inspection report, NDT report (if requested), commercial invoice, packing list, B/L and any required origin or conformity certificates (CE, GOST, FORM-E, etc.).
