Manufacturing and Inspection Route

Use this route to understand what has to be confirmed before price, lead time, MTC 3.1 and third-party inspection commitments are made.

  1. Material review

    Material grade, heat number, certificate basis and substitution limits are checked against the Long Weld Neck Flanges drawing or standard before procurement is released.

  2. Forging process confirmation

    The forging route is selected around flange type, section thickness, bore allowance, hub or neck geometry and pressure-service requirements.

  3. Heat treatment

    Heat treatment is planned with the required record package, mechanical testing basis and impact-test condition where low-temperature or alloy service applies.

  4. Rough machining

    Rough machining opens reference faces, bore, hub, neck or sealing-face stock needed to control allowance before final flange machining.

  5. Final machining

    Final machining controls facing, bore, bolt pattern, groove, sealing surface and flange-table or drawing tolerances before dimensional inspection is issued.

  6. Inspection and document review

    Inspection covers dimensional report, MTC 3.1, PMI and required UT, MT or PT records before the release documents are matched to the purchase order.

  7. Marking, packing and export document preparation

    Marking, packing and export documents are prepared by PO line item so the Long Weld Neck Flanges shipment can clear customs and be identified at site receiving.

Inspection and Documents

Include document requirements with the first RFQ so inspection cost and timing are visible before offer comparison.

  • MTC EN 10204 3.1
  • Heat treatment record
  • Dimensional report
  • PMI when alloy verification is required
  • UT, MT or PT when specified
  • Tensile, impact or hardness test records when required
  • Third-party inspection support by project request

How to Send This RFQ

Complete offers come back fastest when the first message carries the data below - and avoids the omissions that make quotations look cheaper than they are.

Send these details

  • Standard or drawing
  • NPS / DN
  • Pressure class / PN
  • Overall length
  • Neck outside diameter
  • Bore
  • Facing
  • Bolt pattern
  • Material grade
  • Quantity
  • Heat treatment

Avoid these omissions

  • Sending a product name without standard, drawing or pressure rating
  • Leaving bore, facing or bolt pattern unclear
  • Mixing DN, NPS, PN and class references without a drawing
  • Omitting inspection documents until after price discussion
  • Forgetting destination country, packing or third-party inspection requirements

FAQ

Short answers for common RFQ questions.

Can you review custom long weld neck flanges by drawing?

Yes. Send the latest drawing revision with overall length, neck outside diameter, bore, facing, material grade, quantity and inspection requirements for review before quotation.

What information is needed before quotation?

The first RFQ should include standard or drawing, NPS or DN, pressure class or PN, overall length, neck outside diameter, bore, facing, bolt pattern, material, quantity, inspection and destination country.

Which materials are common for LWN flanges?

Common long weld neck flange materials include ASTM A105, A350 LF2, stainless steel grades and duplex grades, with final feasibility confirmed by drawing and project requirements.

What should you provide for Class 1500 or Class 2500 LWN flanges?

For high-pressure LWN flanges, provide the drawing, pressure class, bore, wall transition, facing, material, heat treatment, NDT requirements and any third-party inspection requirement.

Can inspection documents be arranged?

Inspection documents such as MTC 3.1, heat treatment records, dimensional reports, PMI, UT, MT, PT and third-party inspection support can be reviewed and arranged according to the project requirement.
