Product Description
Anchor Flanges
Anchor flanges are forged fittings put on pipelines and embedded in reinforced concrete blocks to provide structural integrity. The mainline's thermal expansion and contraction are restricted or limited, and built-up stresses are transferred to external buildings or larger foundations. There are many different applications for anchor flanges, including the suction and discharge laterals of a pumping station at a river crossing, points of directional change, connections to equipment at meter runs, and the attachment of subsea piping and risers to the platform structure, among others.
Highly Durable ConstructionManufactured from carbon or stainless steel using forging or precise machining, this anchor flange is engineered to withstand demanding industrial applications. Its anti-corrosive finish and robust construction help ensure reliability and long service intervals, making it suitable for oil and gas, machinery, or hydraulic pipelines.
Assured Quality and TestingEach unit undergoes stringent ultrasonic, hydrostatic, and dimensional inspections to meet ASME, ASTM, DIN, or ANSI standards. This ensures consistent product integrity, leak resistance, and optimal fitment, providing peace of mind to exporters, importers, and industries across India and beyond.
Easy Installation and Low MaintenanceDesigned for on-site welding (butt weld or socket weld ends), the anchor flange ensures a secure, permanent fit in your pipeline system. Its low maintenance requirements and easy integration make it an ideal solution for new installations or upgrades, while its compatibility with a range of media adds further versatility.
FAQs of Anchor Flange:
Q: How is the anchor flange installed in a pipeline system?
A: The anchor flange is typically installed using on-site welding, either with butt weld or socket weld ends, providing a stable anchoring point for pipelines, especially in oil, gas, steam, or water applications.
Q: What types of media are compatible with this anchor flange?
A: This anchor flange is engineered for use with water, oil, gas, and steam, ensuring versatility across varied industrial sectors including pipelines, machinery, and processing lines.
Q: When should I choose a forged anchor flange over a machined one?
A: Forged anchor flanges offer heightened strength and structural integrity, making them suitable for high-pressure or critical applications, while machined flanges are appropriate for lower stress requirements or precise custom dimensions.
Q: Where are these anchor flanges commonly used?
A: They are commonly installed in pipeline systems, oil and gas industries, and heavy machinery setupsanywhere pipelines need secure anchoring, stress distribution, or a fixed connection point.
Q: What is the testing process before delivery?
A: Each flange undergoes ultrasonic, hydrostatic, and dimensional testing to verify internal integrity, pressure holding capabilities, and conformity to specified standards, ensuring reliability on delivery.
Q: What are the benefits of the anti-corrosive coating and polished finish?
A: The anti-corrosive coating and smooth polished surface protect the flange from rust, enhance durability, prolong operational life, and reduce ongoing maintenance costs, especially in demanding or exposed environments.
Q: Is customization available for size and dimensions?
A: Yes, anchor flanges can be customized in length, width, height, thickness, and diameter (DN 50DN 1200) as per client requirements, offering flexibility for diverse installation needs.
