Hi all,

we have a project requirement for screwed flange on 6" piping. How usual is this solution and what problems can be expected?

The pipe will be located 3 m above the ground.

The current issue I foresee is that during the screwing of the flange, it would be hard to match the hole's position and the required length of the spool.
Also, not sure how that can be screwed, I suppose you need immense force...not sure a person can screw that on the ladders?
