The gold standard for high-pressure, high-temperature, and fluctuating stress applications.
The SOTCO Weld Neck Flange is distinguished by its long tapered hub that transitions gradually from the flange thickness to the pipe wall thickness. This design reinforcement transfers stress from the flange to the pipe, reducing stress concentration at the base of the hub.
Engineering Precision: The bore of the flange is machined to match the ID of the mating pipe perfectly. This eliminates turbulence and erosion, making it the ideal choice for critical pipelines in oil & gas, power generation, and nuclear industries.
