Description
A swivel ring flange is a type of specialty flange used in piping systems that need to accommodate movements or changes in direction. It is designed to allow the flange to rotate around a center point, or swivel, which helps to absorb the forces generated by thermal expansion, vibration, or movement in the piping system.
Swivel ring flanges are typically used in piping systems where there is a need for flexibility or movement, such as in offshore platforms, subsea pipelines, or high-temperature applications. They are also commonly used in situations where there is a need to make frequent changes or adjustments to the piping system.
Swivel ring flanges are typically made from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel, and are available in a range of sizes and pressure ratings. They are typically designed with a raised face or flat face and are installed using a gasket to provide a leak-tight seal.
Swivel ring flanges offer several advantages over traditional fixed flanges. They provide a greater degree of flexibility and movement in the piping system, which helps to reduce stress and wear on the piping components. They also allow for easier installation and maintenance, as they can be adjusted or rotated as needed.
The Swivel Ring Flange is comparable to a set of stub end and lap joint flanges, with the difference that a Swivel Ring Flange is used for higher pressure and mostly in offshore/subsea applications. The swivel ring flanges adjust for bolt-hole misalignment in the field via rotational adjustment of the bolt-hole pattern on the flange ring relative to the spool piece.
