Flange pressure rating variances
- Thread starter dutch1956
- Start date
No. The pressure-temperature ratings unique to flanges as referenced in ASME B16.5 is the maximum working pressure for the stated service temperature. So, for a standard 150 lb class flange made from carbon steel, the maximum allowable working pressure at 100 deg F or less fluid temperature is 285 psig.
