Overview
Grooved Flange Adapters are specialized pipeline components designed to connect grooved piping systems to flanged equipment, valves, or instrumentation. They provide a reliable transition between grooved pipes and flange-mounted devices, ensuring secure mechanical connection while maintaining system integrity.
Product Description
A Grooved Flange Adapter features a grooved end for mechanical coupling to the pipeline and a flat face or raised face flange for bolting to valves, pumps, or other equipment. Available in various sizes, they accommodate precise alignment with standard flanges and support efficient installation without welding. Constructed from high-strength ductile iron, these adapters provide durability and excellent mechanical performance, with tensile strength typically exceeding 450 MPa and elongation over 12%. Surface finishes such as galvanized or black-coated options are available to meet environmental or aesthetic requirements.

|  | |||||
| 1.Take out the Rigid &Flexible Coupling Clean the gasket sealing surface within 16mm of the hole and visually inspect the sealing surface for defects that may prevent proper sealing of the gasket.Don't drill the hole on weld line. | 2.Split the Rigid &Flexible Coupling If any burrs or slug exists at the pipe hole,please remove them before assembly,to protect the gasket and avoid leakage. | 3.Pipe preparation Insert the gasket into outlet housing making sure the tab in the gasket line up with the tab recesses in the housing.Align outlet housing over the pipe hole making sure that the locating collar is in the pipe hole. | 4.Lubricate gasket Align the strap around the pipe,inser the bolts and tighten the nuts finger tight. | |||||
