For essential pipe-to-pipe connectivity in a wide range of industries, Socket Weld Flanges from Fortis Forge are recognized for their high strength, precise alignment capabilities, and superior resistance to pressure, corrosion, and mechanical fatigue. These flanges are precision-engineered to meet performance and durability standards as per ASTM A105, ASME B16.5, and applicable DIN specifications. Manufactured using carbon steel or mild steel, our socket weld flanges offer excellent mechanical properties and are ideal for high-pressure, small-diameter piping systems where leak-proof connections are critical.
With advanced machining, controlled forging, and strict quality checks, Fortis Forge Socket Weld Flanges deliver exceptional sealing integrity and structural stability in demanding industrial environments. These flanges are designed with a socket in which the pipe is inserted before being fillet welded around the outer edge, ensuring a solid and clean connection. This design helps reduce turbulence and eliminates the need for beveling the pipe, making them ideal for applications requiring smooth flow and precise fitting.
Available in a variety of sizes, pressure ratings, and facing types (such as RF and FF), our Socket Weld Flanges provide reliable, space-saving, and cost-effective solutions for fluid and gas handling across industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, power generation, petrochemicals, and water treatment.
A Socket Weld Flange is a forged flange designed for small-diameter, high-pressure piping systems. It features a recessed socket into which the pipe is inserted and then fillet welded around the hub. This ensures a smooth bore and excellent flow characteristics with minimal turbulence.
Socket Weld Flanges are ideal for pipelines where internal cleanliness and strength are crucial, especially in systems with high pressure, vibration, or thermal cycling.
At Fortis Forge, our Socket Weld Flanges are manufactured using:
Carbon Steel (ASTM A105)
→ Excellent strength and mechanical properties. Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature systems, including oil & gas, power, and petrochemical sectors.
Mild Steel (IS 2062)
→ Offers good weldability, ductility, and cost-effectiveness. Perfect for structural and low-pressure piping in general industries.
Each flange is precision-machined to ensure:
Tight tolerance for pipe fit
Smooth bore alignment for flow efficiency
Uniform wall thickness and surface finish
High resistance to pressure, temperature, and vibration
Every Socket Weld Flange is subjected to rigorous quality control procedures:
Precision CNC machining and facing
