ASME standards (U.S.)
Pipe flanges that are made to standards are called out by ASME B16.5 or ASME B16.47, and MSS SP-44. They are typically made from forged materials and have machined surfaces. ASME B16.5 refers to nominal pipe sizes (NPS) from 1⁄2" to 24". B16.47 covers NPSs from 26" to 60". Each specification further delineates flanges into pressure classes: 150, 300, 400, 600, 900, 1500 and 2500 for B16.5, and B16.47 delineates its flanges into pressure classes 75, 150, 300, 400, 600, 900. However, these classes do not correspond to maximum pressures in psi. Instead, the maximum pressure depends on the material of the flange and the temperature. For example, the maximum pressure for a Class 150 flange is 285 psi, and for a Class 300 flange, it is 740 psi (both are for ASTM a105 carbon steel and temperatures below 100°F).
European dimensions
Most countries in Europe mainly install flanges according to standard DIN EN 1092-1 (forged stainless or steel flanges). Similar to the ASME flange standard, the EN 1092-1 standard has the basic flange forms, such as weld neck flange, blind flange, lapped flange, threaded flange (thread ISO7-1 instead of NPT), weld-on collar, pressed collars, and adapter flange such as flange coupling GD press fittings. The different forms of flanges within the EN 1092-1 (European Norm/Euronorm) are indicated within the flange name through the type.
| Design | According to EN type | According to DIN |
|---|---|---|
| Weld-neck flange | Type 11 | DIN 2627 - DIN 2638 |
| Blind flange | Type 05 | DIN 2527 |
| Threaded flange | Type 12 | DIN 2558, DIN 2565 - DIN 2569 |
| Flat flange | Type 01 | DIN 2573, DIN 2576 |
| Lapped flange | Type 02 and Type 04 | DIN 2641, DIN 2642, DIN 2655, DIN 2656 |
