3. Primary pressure rating (also known as the flange rating)--150-Ib, 300-1b, etc. 4. Face designation--the machined gasket surface area of the flange (resembles a phonograph record, see Figure 1-3). The flange face is the most impor- tant part of the flange. The lhs-in, raised face is Figure 1-3. Flange face gasket surfaces. (Courtesy of Taylor Forge.) 5
common in 150-1b and 300-1b classes. Heavier rat- ings are ~/4-in. raised faces. A ring type joint is available in all classes, but more common in the 600-1b and greater classes. 5. Bore (also known as the nominal wall thickness of matching pipe)--the measure of the flange wall thickness, which matches the inside dimension of the pipe being used. 6. Material designation--ASTM specifications that describe the raw materials from which the flange is made, such as ingots, blooms, billets, slabs, or bars. 7. Ring gasket number--used when the flange face is a ring type joint style. 8. Heat number or code--the batch number used by steel forgers to identify a particular batch number of steel forgings and test results. The mill test results are made available to the purchasers of the flanges. Flange Bores Weldneck and socket weld flanges are drilled (machined) with the wall thickness of the flange having the same dimensions of the matching pipe. The lighter the pipe is, the larger the bore; conversely, the heavier the pipe, the smaller the bore. Other flanges are drilled to match the outside diameter of pipe sizes, and do not have bore markings to indicate a pipe schedule. 6
