Table of Content

Kaizen Steel Industries is a manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of Tongue & Groove Flanges, known for their precision and quality. In Stainless Steel Tongue & Groove Flanges, the Tongue Flange has a raised ring on its surface, while the Groove Flange features a matching depression. For a watertight connection, it is essential to align these flange faces properly. 

Alloy 20 Groove & Tongue Flanges align on their own, and they do not come into contact with the fluid or gas inside the pipe, preventing corrosion. Nickel Tongue & Groove Flanges are commonly used in the chemical, petroleum, and crude oil extraction industries.

The ANSI B16.5 standard for Tongue & Groove Flanges covers several key aspects, including pressure-temperature ratings, materials, tolerances, marking, and testing for pipe flanges in sizes ranging from NPS 26 to NPS 60. Additionally, the specification outlines the dimensions for Tongue & Groove Flanges. The ANSI B16.5 Class 150 Tongue & Groove Flanges also includes flanges with pressure ratings for classes 75, 150, 300, 400, 600, and 900. The requirements in the ASME B16.5 standard are provided in both Metric (SI) and U.S. Customary units, with bolt and bolt hole diameters expressed in inches.

The Hastelloy C22 Tongue & Groove Flange, also known as Groove & Tongue or Tongue, is similar in shape to a slip-on flange, but the bore is designed with a Groove & Tongue configuration. This allows the flange to be assembled without welding. The threads in the Tongue & Groove Flanges are tapered, creating a seal between the flange and the pipe as the tapers match in diameter.

The ASTM A182 SS Tongue & Groove Flange specification covers forged low alloy and stainless steel components used in pressure systems. This specification includes flanges like Tongue & Groove Flanges, fittings, valves, and other parts with specific dimensions or standards.

DIN86029 PN10 Tongue & Groove Flanges are designed for special conditions. A key benefit of using Copper Nickel Tongue & Groove Flanges is that they can be attached to the pipe without welding. Surface treatment for Carbon Steel large tongue and groove flanges can be done using various methods, such as applying anti-rust paint, yellow transparent coating, oil black paint, zinc plating, or hot and cold dip galvanizing.

The face types for Alloy 20 Tongue & Groove Flanges include Flat Face (FF), Raised Face (RF), and Ring Type Joint (RTJ). Class 300 Tongue & Groove Flanges are used in various industries, including water systems, shipbuilding, oil fields, offshore projects, natural gas, electric power, and pipe projects.
