A 2.5-inch industrial mild steel flange is a type of flange made from mild steel (a form of carbon steel with a low carbon content), used in industrial applications for connecting pipes, valves, and equipment in a piping system. The 2.5-inch size refers to the nominal pipe size (NPS) or the approximate inside diameter of the pipe to which the flange is connected.

Here’s an overview of what you would expect for a 2.5-inch industrial mild steel flange:

Key Specifications:

1. Material:

   • Mild Steel (Low Carbon Steel) is commonly used for flanges because it's relatively inexpensive, easy to fabricate, and offers good strength for standard applications. However, it is not resistant to corrosion, so protective coatings or upgrades (such as stainless steel) may be needed in harsher environments.
   • Common material grades include ASTM A105 for flanges used in general industrial applications, though mild steel can also come in other grades like ASTM A106, A234, or A312.

2. Flange Types: There are several types of flanges available, each designed for different needs:

   • Slip-on Flange: A flange that slips over the pipe and is welded in place. It's easy to install but may have a lower pressure rating compared to welded neck flanges.
   • Weld Neck Flange: A flange with a tapered neck that is welded to the pipe. It is highly recommended for high-pressure systems.
   • Threaded Flange: A flange with internal threads, which screws onto a pipe with external threads. Ideal for systems where welding is not possible.
   • Blind Flange: A flange used to seal the end of a pipe or a nozzle.
   • Socket Weld Flange: A flange designed for smaller pipe sizes, where the pipe is inserted into the flange and welded around the edges.

A mild steel ring joint flange (RTJ) is a durable, industrial component that connects pipes or equipment together with a metal ring gasket system: 

• Material: Made from mild steel
• Shape: Round
• Color: Silver
• Purpose: Creates a leak-proof seal in high-pressure piping systems
• Applications: Used in industrial environments, nuclear power facilities, and gas and liquid lines

A Polished Carbon Steel WNRF (Weld Neck Raised Face) Flange is a type of industrial flange used to connect pipes, valves, or equipment in a piping system. It is made from carbon steel and is designed with a weld neck and a raised face. The "polished" finish typically refers to a smooth, clean surface finish that enhances both the aesthetics and functionality of the flange, improving its corrosion resistance and making it easier to clean.

Key Components of a Polished Carbon Steel WNRF Flange:

1. Carbon Steel:

   • Material: Carbon steel is a commonly used material for flanges due to its strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. It is often used in systems where the risk of corrosion is not as high or where the flange will be coated or painted for protection.
   • Characteristics: Carbon steel has good tensile strength and weldability but is prone to rust when exposed to moisture or aggressive chemicals unless properly treated or coated.

2. WNRF (Weld Neck Raised Face) Flange:

   • Weld Neck: A weld neck flange has a long, tapered neck that allows for a stronger, more durable connection to the pipe. This design distributes stress more evenly, reducing the risk of leakage at the joint. The neck is welded directly to the pipe, providing better structural integrity, especially in high-pressure systems.
   • Raised Face (RF): The raised face refers to the portion of the flange that is raised slightly above the flange's outer surface. This raised area allows for a better seal when a gasket is placed between two flanges, helping to create a leak-proof connection. Raised face flanges are widely used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications to ensure a secure seal.
   • Face Finish: The raised face provides a surface for the gasket, and the smooth or polished finish on the flange face makes it easier to achieve a proper seal when bolted with a gasket in place.

A mild steel (MS) BLRF flange, or blind raised face flange, is a round plate with bolt holes but no center hole that's used to close off the ends of pipes, valves, or equipment nozzles: 

• PurposeBLRF flanges are an essential part of many industrial pipe systems, used for applications such as creating pressure vessels and transferring liquids and gasses. 
• FeaturesBLRF flanges are available in various sizes and materials, and can be custom made or machined to accept a nominal sized pipe. 
• ApplicationsBLRF flanges are commonly used in petrochemical, pipe engineering, public services, and water works. 
• SpecificationsFlange specifications, including pressure, temperature, and material, may vary between manufacturers and sizes.

A flange is a projecting rim, collar, or ring that connects or secures objects together: 

• FunctionFlanges are used in many industrial and building applications to connect pipes, equipment, or other objects. They can also be used to strengthen or stiffen an object, or to stabilize and guide its movements. 
• PartsA flange has two main parts: a flange face and flange connection holes. The flange face is mounted onto the object being connected, while the flange connection holes are used to attach the flange to other objects. 
• AttachmentFlanges are often attached using bolts in a circular pattern. They can be screwed or welded to the object being connected. 
• SealingFlanges are used to seal pipe systems to prevent leaks. The pressure applied to the mating sealing surfaces causes the two faces to crush a gasket or press together. 
• MaintenanceFlanges allow for easy access for maintenance, inspection, and modification. They can be used to connect or disconnect pipes without welding, which simplifies installation and reduces downtime. 
• StandardsFlanges are usually manufactured to standards such as ANSI (American National Standards Institute) or DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung). These standards define the dimensions, shapes, and locations of the connection holes.
