Stainless steel grooved flanges are designed for stainless steel piping systems, enable rapid connection and sealing. These grooved flange adaptors utilize a mix of grooves and flanges to efficiently join and secure pipes together. As a powerful SS pipe flanges factory, we have a complete range of models to bring you satisfactory solutions.

First, the material is stainless steel, which gives the flange excellent corrosion resistance and strength, and can operate stably and long-term under harsh working conditions.
Secondly, SS pipe flanges are precisely designed and tightly connected to pipes, valves and other equipment to form a reliable seal, effectively prevent fluid leakage, and ensure efficient fluid flow in the pipeline system.
In addition, stainless steel flanges come in a variety of forms, such as threaded flanges, socket welding flanges, welding neck SS pipe flanges, etc. These stainless steel grooved fittings can be flexibly selected according to specific application scenarios and needs to meet different connection and sealing requirements.
Mainly divided into two categories: flat-weld grooved flanges and butt-weld grooved flanges.
Flat-Weld Grooved Flanges
Flat-weld grooved flanges are designed to be welded to the pipe by a single fillet weld on the outside of the flange. This type of flange is generally easier and quicker to install compared to butt-weld grooved flanges, making it suitable for applications where installation speed is a priority. Flat-weld grooved flanges are commonly used in low to moderate pressure systems and are ideal for applications where frequent disassembly and reassembly are required, such as in maintenance-intensive environments. The flat-weld design also allows for some flexibility in alignment, which can be beneficial in systems where precise alignment is challenging.
Butt-Weld Grooved Flanges
Butt-weld grooved flanges, on the other hand, are designed to be welded to the pipe with a full penetration weld, providing a stronger and more secure connection. This type of stainless steel flanges is typically used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications where the integrity of the weld is critical. Butt-weld grooved flanges offer superior strength and durability, making them suitable for demanding industrial environments such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation. The butt-weld design ensures a smooth transition between the pipe and the SS pipe flanges, reducing turbulence and minimizing the risk of corrosion at the weld joint.
