Standard Flanges for Distributors and Stockists

Standard flanges are the catalogue geometries a piping class already fixes - weld neck, slip-on, socket weld, threaded, lap joint and blind - made to published table dimensions rather than to a one-off drawing. This page is for a bill of materials, not for a special part.

  • Weld neck · slip-on · blind · socket weld · threaded · lap joint
  • ASME B16.5 Class 150–2500
  • EN 1092-1 · DIN · GOST 33259
  • MTC 3.1 · heat number marking

Standard Flanges Explained

Use the published ASME tables to identify the RFQ route: B16.5 covers Classes 150 to 1500 at NPS 1/2 to 24 and Class 2500 at NPS 1/2 to 12; B16.47 covers Classes 75 to 900 at NPS 26 to 60. EN 1092-1, DIN 2527/2633 and GOST 33259/12820/12821 requests follow their exact DN/PN table or project drawing. Facing and grade requests, including RF/FF/RTJ and ASTM A105/A105N, A350 LF2, stainless 304/316/321/347, alloy, duplex or nickel, are reviewed against the purchase specification and drawing before BLD confirms feasibility; the published scope does not promise every grade and facing combination.

ASME B16.5 tabulates Class 2500 through NPS 12; above NPS 12 we forge Class 2500 flanges to your drawing and design calculation. We supply ASME B16.47 Series A and Series B flanges across NPS 26 to NPS 60, in the classes and sizes the standard tabulates for each series. Our D51 mill rolls rings up to 1,500 mm OD and 240 mm thick; larger rings are forged by partner forges near our plant in Dingxiang.

For a purchase list with several standard flange items, use one row per item and state its governing standard or drawing, flange type, NPS/DN, Class/PN, facing, bore or schedule where applicable, material grade and quantity. Include the requested inspection documents, destination country and packing requirements with the RFQ so each line can be reviewed against its own specification.

Standard Flanges Supply Scope

Standard flange RFQs are reviewed by flange type, standard, size, pressure class, facing, material grade, quantity, inspection documents and destination country.

  • Standard flange RFQ review for oil, gas, petrochemical, power and pressure equipment projects
  • Weld neck, slip-on, socket weld, threaded, blind and lap joint flange review
  • ASME B16.5, EN 1092-1, DIN, GOST and project drawing requirements

Standard Flanges for Stockists and Distributors

If you hold standard flanges in stock for resale, send your replenishment list as it stands. We quote it line by line, on these terms:

  • Mixed sizes on one order: weld neck, slip-on, blind, socket weld, threaded and lap joint flanges in different NPS or DN, classes and grades, one row per line item.
  • Minimum order 1 piece, so a single-piece line is quoted like any other line on the list.
  • MTC 3.1 to EN 10204 for each heat, and every flange marked with its heat number, so each piece on your shelf traces back to its certificate.
  • Packing consolidated per line item, so the pieces of each line are packed together and a mixed order arrives sorted by line.
  • FOB the Chinese port you designate as standard; CFR or CIF on request.
  • 30% prepayment with the order; the balance when the goods arrive at the port in China that you designate.
  • We reply to your list within 8 hours.

  • Flange type
  • Standard
  • Size
  • Class / PN
  • Facing
  • Bore

  • Omitting inspection documents until after price discussion
  • Forgetting destination country, packing or third-party inspection requirements

Manufacturing and Inspection Route

We confirm each step against your drawing or standard before we quote.

  1. Material review

    Material grade, heat number, certificate basis and substitution limits are checked against the Standard 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 Standard Flanges shipment can clear customs and be identified at site receiving.

Inspection and Documents

List document requirements in the first RFQ; they affect price and schedule.

  • 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

FAQ

When is a flange no longer a standard flange?

When its dimensions come from a one-off drawing instead of a published table. Standard flanges are the catalogue geometries a piping class already fixes - weld neck, slip-on, socket weld, threaded, lap joint and blind - made to ASME, EN 1092-1, DIN or GOST tables.

Does certificate scope change the price of a standard flange line?

Yes. Besides type, material grade, pressure rating, facing, bore and quantity, the certificate scope and any mixed-line packing requirement are part of what we price.

Which checks does a standard flange order go through?

A dimensional check against the table, heat number marking, MTC 3.1, face finish and packing verification.
