neck flange and slip on flange
neck flange and slip on flange
(OP)
Can I use a neck flange with a slip on flange?
Both would be ASME B 16.5.
I saw that on a drawing and I don´t know what to think about that.
Thanks a lot

Do you mean can you bolt a Weld-neck flange to a Slip-On Flange? If this is you question then the answer is yes!
Do you mean can you weld a Slip-On flange directly to the taper of a Weld-Neck Flange then the answer is no!
I hope one of these is your real question and your real answer.

Check if sizing is an issue of Slip on.
Some Codes do not allow large Slip-on Flanges.

If you use a gasket whose ID is the same as the ID of the pipe, i.e. a typical spiral wound gasket especially with inner ring, you will have an unsupported gasket edge in the flow path. With spiral wound gaskets this IS a problem which can lead to damage and unspooling of the spiral wound gasket into the bore- potentially a big problem. If you choose a composition gasket, or any gasket with an ID equal to the OD of the pipe, such that the unsupported edge is no longer there, you will be fine.
