Industrial Applications of Alloy Steel Slip On Flanges

Alloy steel slip-on flanges are used in selected piping arrangements where the mechanical and temperature requirements of the system are compatible with their design.

Their chromium molybdenum material composition makes them relevant to a number of industrial applications.

  • Refineries: Used in suitable auxiliary and process piping systems handling elevated temperature fluids and refinery streams.
  • Petrochemical Plants: Applied in selected process lines where material compatibility and operating conditions require alloy steel components.
  • Power Generation: Used in suitable utility and auxiliary piping systems. The flange type must be approved for the specific steam pressure, temperature and loading conditions.
  • Fertiliser Plants: Used in selected process and utility services where the piping material specification calls for chromium molybdenum steel.
  • Industrial Processing: Applied in process piping systems where the required material grade and flange configuration are established by the engineering design.

The final choice of flange type should always follow the project piping specification. Applications involving severe thermal cycling, high pressure or demanding mechanical loads may require a different flange design. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

Alloy Steel Slip On Flanges are forged chromium molybdenum flanges that slide over pipes and are secured using internal and external fillet welds, as per ASTM A182.

Slip on flanges use two fillet welds, while weld neck flanges use butt weld connections and are preferred for demanding pressure, temperature and cyclic conditions.

F11 suits elevated temperature piping, F22 serves demanding steam and refinery applications, while F91 is used in high temperature power generation systems.

ASTM A182 specifies material requirements, while ASME B16.5 covers applicable flange dimensions, pressure temperature ratings and related requirements.

ASME B16.5 covers pressure classes 150, 300, 400, 600, 900, 1500 and applicable Class 2500 configurations, depending on size and flange type.

Yes, where permitted by the piping specification. Chromium molybdenum welding requires appropriate preheating, interpass temperature control and post weld heat treatment.
