Flanges are the second most commonly used joining method after welding, providing a reliable way to link pipe systems with the various equipment, valves, and other components of practically any processing system. As flanges allow for quicker disassembly and better access to system components, they provide you with more alternatives when it comes to managing piping systems.
Flange screw mainly plays a fixing role. These powerful one-piece fasteners are designed to spread the clamping load. These screws, manufactured by Volvo Penta, can be utilized in high-stress applications such as valves, pumps, motors, and automotive suspension systems. They're 25 percent more powerful than medium-strength steel screws. The flange evenly distributes pressure over the surface, obviating the use of a washer. This design provides significant benefits for assemblies over typical hex head cap screws due to its higher strength and the bigger bearing surface under the head. Product and machinery stability has been improved.
