API 6BX flange hubs matching ASME B36.10 nominal pipe sizes
API 6BX flange hubs matching ASME B36.10 nominal pipe sizes
(OP)
There is a trend to use the API 6A flange standard on piping system designs for flange ratings in excess of ASME class 2500, despite the fact that the API standard is intended for well head applications. The nominal sizes between these standards do not match. Transistion pieces to match the dimensions may be a resolution, with consideration for the material strengths of the hub and the matching transistion piece and the continuing pipe. What are the recourses to this problem?
