Flanges

 There are several different types of flanges.

 Bolted flanges : which are used to join two sections of pipe or tubing together.

 Swept flange : which has an angled surface that allows for more flexibility during installation.

 Thrust flange : which is used to connect two pipes that have different diameters or when there is a large gap between them

 Wafer flange : which is flat on one side with an angled surface on the other side.

 Step flange : which is similar to a wafer but with two or more angled surfaces instead of just one.

 Flanges machined components are used in a variety of different situations, including

 In the construction industry, flanges machined components are often used to join pipes.

 In mechanical engineering, flanges machined components are a critical part of many machines.

 Flanges machined components can also be found in many types of equipment that need to be connected to something else.

 Flanges machined components are also used in piping systems in order to ensure that they remain sealed when pressure builds up inside them due to pressure changes in their environment

 Flanges can also be used for aesthetic purposes. They're often used in plumbing systems as part of shower heads and faucets
