Socket Weld Flange

We are offering socket weld flange. A socket weld flange is similar to a slip on flange, however socket weld flanges have an internal recess on the inside diameter to allow for a smoother flow of the process fluid. This creates a smooth bore with the proper welding and grinding. However a socket weld flange can be more expensive than a slip on flange due to the more intricate machining. Socket weld flanges were initially developed for use on smaller sizes of pipe at higher pressure ratings.
