What Is a Weld Neck Flange?

A weld neck flange is a type of pipe flange that incorporates a cast-in neck that is welded to the pipe. Unlike a plain flange that is slipped over the pipe prior to being welded into place, a weld neck flange has a spout-like neck that is beveled to match up to the pipe. Once the pipe is beveled to match the weld neck flange, a perfect V shape is created in which a butt weld is placed to connect the two components. The benefit of a weld neck flange is that the welded connection does not interfere with the flow of liquid through the flange. By placing the weld joint at the end of the funnel-like neck of the flange, the pipe is much easier to align to the flange, and a stronger weld is typically possible with this type of flange. The flange's neck is also perfectly beveled to demonstrate the type of bevel that the welder must place on the pipe before making the connection with the flange. |
