Titanium flanges are key connecting components in piping systems, made from Gr2 or premium titanium alloys,such as Gr5、Gr7 and Gr12,valued for their excellent corrosion resistance, high specific strength, and compatibility with extreme environments. They are widely used in petrochemical, marine, aerospace, and pharmaceutical industries where traditional steel flanges fail to meet performance requirements.
Because of its special advantages, the Titanium Flange plays an important role in industries like aerospace, automotive, energy, and electronics.
II. Classification:
Here means classification by Structural Type which is mostly used in engineering, and this is the most widely recognized classification in industrial applications, based on the connection mode with pipelines.Please see the tables below:
|
Flange Type |
Abbr. |
Structural Characteristics |
Installation |
Advantages |
|
Weld Neck Flange |
WN |
Integral neck design, thickened hub, smooth transition between flange and pipe |
Welded connection with pipe |
high strength, good stress distribution; suitable for high-pressure, high-temperature, and vibration-prone systems |
|
Slip On Flange |
SO |
Flat disc structure with a central bore for pipe to slip through, then welded (fillet weld on both sides) |
Easy alignment during installation, lower cost than WN flanges |
suitable for medium and low-pressure pipelines |
|
Blind Flange |
BL |
Solid disc without a central bore |
Used to seal the end of pipelines or equipment openings |
Easy to disassemble for maintenance and inspection |
|
Threaded Flange |
TH |
Internal threads on the central bore, connected to threaded pipes |
No welding required |
Suitable for pipelines that cannot be welded (e.g., flammable, explosive media) or low-pressure systems |
|
Lap Joint Flange |
LJ |
Matched with lap joint stub ends; flange can rotate freely on the stub end |
Convenient for pipeline alignment, reusable |
Suitable for corrosion-resistant alloy pipelines (e.g., titanium, stainless steel) |
III. Technical Specifications:

IV. Key Performance Advantages:
1. Corrosion Resistance: Withstands seawater, acids, and chloride environments (corrosion rate <0.01 mm/year).
2. High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Reduces installation load and transportation costs vs. steel flanges.
3. Biocompatibility: Safe for food, pharmaceutical, and medical applications.
4 .Temperature Stability: Operates reliably from cryogenic (-253°C) to moderate high temperatures (≤300°C for Gr2; ≤400°C for Gr5).
1. Chemical/Petrochemical: Acid recovery, chlor-alkali plants, and high-purity fluid handling.
2. Marine Engineering: Offshore pipelines, desalination systems, and shipbuilding.
3. Food/Pharmaceutical: High-purity processing lines requiring non-contamination.
4. Aerospace/Nuclear: Rocket propulsion systems, reactor cooling loops, and vacuum chambers.
