Product Inspection

1. Chemical Composition Inspection

Chemical analysis is performed to verify that the flange material meets the required grade specification such as ASTM A105 or A182 F316. Test results for carbon, manganese, chromium, nickel and other key elements are checked against standard limits. This ensures the selected slip on pipe flange has the correct metallurgical composition before release for machining or shipment.

2. Mechanical Properties Testing

Mechanical testing confirms that the flange material satisfies specified tensile strength, yield strength, elongation and hardness requirements. Depending on grade and project requirements, tests are carried out on representative samples after heat treatment. This helps ensure the slip-on flange can withstand service loads, assembly stress and operating conditions in demanding industrial piping systems.

3. Dimensional Inspection

Dimensional inspection checks outside diameter, bore size, thickness, bolt circle, bolt hole diameter, number of holes and hub or face profile according to the applicable standard. Special attention is given to raised face finish and concentricity for proper gasket sealing. Accurate dimensions are essential to ensure interchangeability, smooth installation and correct fit-up with mating flanges and pipe.

4. PMI Testing and Hydrostatic Testing

Positive material identification is available to confirm alloy chemistry for stainless, alloy steel and duplex slip on flanges, reducing the risk of grade mix-up. Hydrostatic or assembly pressure verification can be arranged when required by project specification. SASA FLANGE also provides EN 10204 3.1 certificate, inspection reports and full traceability records for each supplied batch.
