Our Range of Flanges

The Metal Company’s range of flanges includes the Tube Flanges, Pipe flanges, BSP threaded flanges, Backup Flanges, and blind flanges.

Flanges are available in various sizes and standards to suit imperial tube, schedule pipe and spiral welded tube. Typical industry applications include irrigation, pumping, petrochemical, geothermal, marine and food & beverage process lines. The Metal Company stock flanges in both Full Thickness & Lightweight thickness to suit your application.

Flanges are used to connect pipes, valves, pumps and other equipment to form a piping system. Flanges also provide easy access for cleaning, inspection or modification. 

Flat faced slip on flanges are smooth on both sides of the flange. It slips over either tube or pipe and then is welded into place. It is available for both tube and pipe to suit standards for Table E, Table D, PN10-16, ANSI150, PN16 and AS4087 for pipe.      

Our raised face flange are only stocked in full thickness. Raised face flanges are good for high pressure environments as the pressure concentrates on the raised face rather than the main face. We stock these for pipe in ANSI150 & PN16.

This is a blank flange. There is no internal hole in the centre. It is used to blank off tube and pipe flanges to stop the flow at the end of a flanged pipe run or if there are plans for further expansion. If needed, they can also be bored out to suit different tube or pipe sizes depending on your application. We have them available in Table E, Table D, PN10-16 and Ansi150. 

BSP Threaded flange are used for bsp threaded applications. Here you will see a raised face on one side and an internal female parallel BSP Thread in the centre. The thread size is always the same size as the flange size and we have them available for Table E, Ansi150 and PN10-16. For other sizes TMC can custom make these flanges by boring the internal of a blank flange and welding in a socket. 

Back up flanges, otherwise known as floating flanges, are used with pipe stub ends or tube neck rings. These are great as in certain applications it makes your installation a lot quicker/easier because you can just swivel the flange to the right orientation to match the boltholes of whatever you are bolting the flange to. For all flanges, we stock bolts and bolt kits. We stock these in Table E, Table D, PN10, PN10-16, ANSI150.

Flange gaskets create a static seal between two flange faces, designed to keep liquids and gases from seeping out. The black gasket is made from insertion rubber and can handle up to 70 degrees. The white gasket is made from nitrile and can handle temperatures up to 90 degrees. Nitrile gaskets are typically used in food and beverage applications.

FlexiFlow: Stainless Steel Braided Flexible Hose 

The Metal Company stock both PTFE and stainless steel convoluted flexible braided hoses. We hold these in stock ready for dispatch over night. Because of their flexibility these hoses are great for reducing mechanical vibration, compensating for expansion and contraction or misalignment of pipework.

RapidPress Deburrer Tool | RapidPress Rundown

The RapidPress Deburrer Tool is designed for use on RapidPress tube from 15-54mm but can also be used on other stainless tubes or pipes. Watch Patrick discuss what the deburrer tool is and how to use it.

RapidPress Rotary Tube Cutter | RapidPress Rundown

The RapidPress rotary tube cutter is our preferred method of cutting tubes from 15mm – 76mm as it leaves a burr free edge on the external of the tube. Watch Patrick discuss how to use this tool.

RapidPress Expansion Bellows | RapidPress Rundown

When pipelines are heated or cooled it can cause them to expand or contract in length. If this is not compensated for it can put extreme pressure on welds or pressed joints resulting in failure. Watch Patrick discuss our RapidPress Expansion Bellows.
