Carbon Steel Lap Joint Flanges are a good fit for piping systems where the flange needs to be aligned or repositioned during installation. Our flanges work with a matching stub end, allowing the flange itself to rotate around the pipe connection and making bolt-hole alignment easier. We supply them for piping arrangements involving valves, fittings, and equipment, with options in different sizes and specifications to suit industrial requirements. For projects that call for this type of connection, you can count on Alkun Steel as your carbon steel lap joint flange supplier in Souk Ahras.

Key Features

• Rotating flange design: Allows the flange to rotate around the stub end, helping with bolt-hole alignment during assembly.
• Stub-end connection: Used with a compatible stub end to create a flanged pipe connection without welding the flange directly to the pipe.
• Suitable for repeated assembly: The separate flange and stub-end arrangement can be useful where piping sections may need to be dismantled or repositioned.
