Hi,
I want to make a drawing for pipe flange (slip-on type). Details as follows:
Size: DN3000
Pressure: PN16 Bar
Material: Mild steel
Flow medium: Water
Doubt: What thickness I need to give for this flange? Since this is a very big size, most of the standards have not mentioned about the...

Hi All,
I need to provide fasteners for DN3000 Butterfly valve to pipe flange connection.
Doubt: For such big Valves, is it a good practice to provide Hexagonal Bolts or Studs? Please suggest.
FYI: Thread size is M64.
Hi,
I have gone through the various gasket standards EN 1514-1, ASME-B-16.20, ASME-B-16.21. And observed that inside diameter of gasket is more than the bore of the flange. Please find the attachment for easy understanding.
I don't understand why the inside diameter of gasket is more than the...
Hi BCD,
Thanks for your reply.
I can see that all gasket manufacturers specified bolt torque only till DN1000.
But I want for higher sizes like DN2200, 2600,3000.
Pls suggest how to proceed.
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for your post.
Yes. The valve is flanged. But it is ductile iron material(min. Yield strength is 320 Mpa). Where as my pipe Flange is mild steel ( Yield strength is 250mpa).
Because of lower yield strength of pipe Flange, I think it is not recommended to maintain same as...
Hello LittleInch,
I'm going to maintain pipe flange drilling as per the valve flange drilling.
My concern is only about thickness.
5.5" is more or is it okay?
Hi,
Is it okay to buy Dovetail joint gaskets for bigger sizes like 3000mm diameter?
Will there be any issues in-terms of leakage at the joints?
Pleas suggest with your experiences.
Material: Rubber (EPDM)

Hi All,
I want to tighten the bolts connection between pipe flange and butterfly valve flange. Details as follows:
Valve size : DN2200
BOLTS: M56 X 52 Nos. - A2 hexagonal bolts
8mm thick rubber gasket is used in between valve and pipe flanges.
Can any one tell me how much torque need to be...
further to my above doubt, please find the attachment of the valve picture for easy understanding.https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=127ecd57-4257-4f50-807d-27bbeee85042&file=DCV.jpg
Hi TugboatEng,
To my knowledge, "BSPP to BSPP" fitting will have chance of leakage more as compared to "BSPT (Male) - BSPP (Female)" fitting.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Hi All,
I'm want to select BSP threading brass fittings for our control valve tubings.
I have two options:
1. All male & female threading in BSPP.
2. All male in BSPT and all female threading in BSPP.
can anyone suggest which is the best option to select.
FYI: Application is for water...
Hi All,
1. what is the tolerance of standard pipes?
2. I want to know the tolerance of 2600 (104") pipe.
I didn't find any information about these tolerances in web.
Please help with your knowledge and experiences.
Hi Nick_grey,
Yes. It is not recommended to use any sealant/glue. Especially for water applications.
But to avoid the floppy of gasket/to make sure the gasket stands flat during installation, I think full face gasket is good to go for such big valves.
May I know which standard you follow for...
Hello All,
Question:
which type of gasket is ideal to use for easy installation of DN2600 butterfly valve? Ring type or Full face flange Gasket?
Details:
DN2600 PN16 butterfly valve has raised face flanges.
I want to select EPDM gasket for valve installation to pipe Flange.
Is it good to...
