36"NB - 1500# rated Weld neck Flange

[roca]

Is this size of flange and rating available in any ASME (or API) standard?
ASME B16.47 does not cover 1500# rated flanges.
Thanks

Apparently B16.47 originally did cover #1500 but only in the original 1982 edition. So if you can find one of those you could try that...

Otherwise you're into special flange design.

See similar posts below.

Basically choose a different flange spec (Norsok L-005)or design a special flange to ASME VIII design

36" class 1500 is a huge force. I would weld it....
