Collection: SW Flange (Socket Weld Flange)
Overview
Socket Weld Flanges (SW Flanges) are designed for small-diameter, high-pressure piping systems. Pipes are inserted into the socket bore of the flange and then fillet welded, creating a strong, leak-resistant connection suitable for critical industrial applications.
Manufactured in accordance with international standards, our SW Flanges are widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical, power generation, and high-pressure fluid systems worldwide.
