Titanium flanges are integral components used in piping systems, crafted from titanium or titanium alloys renowned for their exceptional properties. These flanges facilitate the connection and disconnection of pipes, valves, or other equipment, allowing for the creation, modification, and maintenance of a piping network.
Titanium's inherent resistance to corrosion in various harsh environments, chemicals, and seawater makes these flanges highly sought-after, especially in marine, chemical, and offshore industries.
Titanium is renowned for its strength, yet it's lighter than many other metals, contributing to its use in aerospace and other weight-sensitive applications.
Weld Neck Flanges: Featuring a tapered hub, these flanges are welded to the piping system, offering high structural strength and stress distribution. They're ideal for high-pressure and extreme temperature environments.
Slip-On Flanges: These flanges slide over the pipe and are then welded in place. They're relatively easier to align and provide a smooth bore for improved flow.
Socket Weld Flanges: Designed for socket-weld connections, these flanges ensure a strong, leak-resistant joint by inserting the pipe into the flange socket and welding it.
Threaded Flanges: Equipped with internal threads, they screw onto the pipe's external threads, offering easy installation and disassembly without welding.
Blind Flanges: Used to seal or close the end of a piping system, these solid plates lack a bore or center hole and are bolted onto the pipe end.
Titanium is biocompatible, making it suitable for medical devices and implants.
