Flange markings

As explained in the article on the Oil & Gassegment , marking is also a key process in the manufacture of flanges. Flanges are used to connect pipes, valves, fittings, and special items such as filters and pressure vessels together. A cover plate can be connected to create a "blind flange." Flanges are joined by bolting, and sealing is often completed with the use of gaskets or other methods.

Flanges

In process industries, flanges are very important in piping construction. Pipe sections can be bolted or welded together with these flanges; allowing easier transport, assembly, installation, and/or disassembly than if they were constructed as one large section

What is marked on a flange?
Each standard clearly has special requirements for steel flanges, usually the seller's logo, the buyer's logo (OEM), the name of the standard, flange type, flange pressure (rating), flange size, flange material, place of origin, heat level, and other data are marked.
