FORGED STUDDING OUTLET FLANGE
The forged studding outlet flanges manufactured by Western of Texas Forge & Flange are a high-strength, precision-engineered component designed for specialized connections in piping systems. It is produced using a forging process that enhances the structural integrity of the metal, making it ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature environments.
What Makes a Forged Studding Outlet Flange Unique
The design features of a studding outlet flange allow for direct installation onto the exterior of a vessel or large piping structure, creating a reinforced outlet connection without the need for traditional full-penetration welding.
Forged Construction
Manufactured using high-pressure forging techniques, resulting in superior strength, enhanced durability, and resistance to mechanical stress and fatigue.
Multiple Drilled Stud Holes
Designed with a series of uniformly spaced, precision-drilled holes around the flange for secure attachment using threaded studs, ensuring a leak-proof and stable connection.
Flat or Raised Face Options
Available with either a flat face (FF) or raised face (RF) depending on the sealing requirements of the application.
Enhanced Pressure Handling
Engineered to withstand high-pressure environments commonly found in industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation.
Corrosion Resistance
Offered in a variety of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel, with options for specialized coatings to resist corrosion in harsh environments.
Precision Machining
Our flanges are machined to exact specifications for a perfect fit, ensuring compatibility with standard vessel or piping connections.
Versatile Design
Suitable for both temporary and permanent installations, with easy access for maintenance or inspection.
How a Studding Outlet Flange is Used
Reinforced Vessel Connections
Commonly used on pressure vessels and storage tanks where a smaller outlet needs to be added for fluid transfer or pressure relief.
Process Equipment Integration
Frequently used in refineries and chemical plants for integrating monitoring devices, pressure relief systems, or auxiliary process lines.
Ease of Maintenance
The studding design enables secure attachment while allowing easier disassembly for inspection, cleaning, or equipment modifications.
Western of Texas Forge & Flange ensures its studding outlet flanges meet industry standards for performance and safety, making them a reliable choice for markets requiring precise and secure piping connections.
