SAE flange dimensions

SAE flange dimensions

SAE flange dimensions

(OP)
Hello all,

I'm looking for a dimensional reference for an SAE 5 hole pattern flange. Plenty of ANSI/ASME refs out there but could not find any for SAE.

Maybe they are one in the same?

Thanks in advance.  

RE: SAE flange dimensions

Meet us halfway and tell us what the flange is in; SAE has standards for lots of different kinds of flanges.

The flange is being used in a processing tank for waste oil. The waste comes into the tank is controlled via a level switch. The level switch is mounted to the tank with a 5 hole pattern SAE flange. The tank is pressurized to 150#'s.  

Typically I would receive a spec for a 1" 150# ANSI flange for example. This customer has specified an SAE flange instead.

I was looking for a chart that would state the bolt circle, flange thickness etc...for this standard.

Thanks

RE: SAE flange dimensions

Does SAE even have a flange standard?  Most of their standards deal with things used to manufacture automobiles.  Are there any SAE members out there that can verify if there is a standard for flanges?  SAE charges for their standards and they can get expensive.

SAE has standards for flywheels and flywheel housings, but those are big, and have 8/10/12 bolts.
They have standards for hydraulic flanges, but those have two or four bolts.

... Ah.   There IS such a flange, as used in level sensors like this:

Unfortunately, the page doesn't reference _which_ standard applies.  You might be able to find it by searching

You can search SAE standards for free at:

They have flange standards for automotive and aerospace applications.
