What is a Slip-On Flange?

A Slip-On Flange (SO Flange) is a flange that slides over the pipe and is welded from both inside and outside to provide strength and prevent leakage. It is easy to align and install, making it a cost-effective choice for low to moderate pressure systems across multiple industries.


🧱 Types of Slip-On Flanges

Flange TypeDescriptionIndustries
Standard Slip-OnMost common; flat face or raised face; simple slip-over pipeOil & gas, marine pipelines
Raised Face (RF)Slightly raised sealing surface; used with gasketsOilfield, chemical plants
Flat Face (FF)Entire face contacts gasket; used with cast equipmentWater plants, civil engineering
Hubbed Slip-OnSlip-on with extended neck; easier bolt alignmentMarine, high-vibration systems
Ring-Type Joint (RTJ)Machined groove for metal gasket; for higher pressure applicationsOffshore, refinery applications
