Kerkau 2-1/2" Carbon Steel Flange A105

The Kerkau 2-1/2" Carbon Steel Flange A105 is a high-quality industrial component designed for piping systems in various applications. Flanges serve as a connection point between different sections of piping, allowing for easy assembly and disassembly, which is crucial in maintenance and repair operations. This specific flange is made from carbon steel, a widely used material in the manufacturing of flanges due to its excellent mechanical properties and cost-effectiveness. The A105 designation follows the ASTM standard, indicating the material is suitable for piping systems that operate at relatively low temperatures but under high pressure, typically below 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. The dimensions of the flange, 2-1/2 inches, refer to its nominal size, which corresponds to the inner diameter of the pipe it connects to. The flange operates under a pressure rating of 300 psi, making it suitable for medium-pressure applications commonly found in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment. Unique features of this flange include its compatibility with various types of gaskets and fittings, ensuring a tight seal and preventing leaks. The B16 standard further ensures the flange's design is compatible with other fittings and components within the same pressure class, promoting versatile integration into existing systems. Overall, the Kerkau 2-1/2" Carbon Steel Flange A105 is a critical component that contributes to the reliability and efficiency of industrial piping systems, supporting safe and effective flow management in diverse environments.
