Types and Structures
1. Type:
According to different connecting methods, the reductor flanges can be classified as welded, threaded and socket welded.It can be classified into metallic materials (for example, carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel) and nonmetallic materials (for example, plastic, rubber, etc.).
2. Structure:
Generally, the ItReducing flange consists of flange body, pad groove and bolt hole.
The inner diameter of the flange is designed according to the requirements of the connection. It can be a variable cone or a variant step structure.
