Socket Weld Flanges Specification, Grades, and Material

About Socket Weld Flanges

Socket Weld flanges were initially designed for applications involving small-size high-pressure piping. While their static strength matches that of Slip-On flanges, their fatigue strength surpasses double-welded Slip-On flanges by 50 percent.

These flanges are connected to the pipe via a single fillet weld on the outer side of the flanges. However, before welding, it's crucial to create space between the flanges or fittings and the pipes. This space ensures proper welding conditions and facilitates a secure connection.

ASME B31.1 1998 127.3 Preparation for Welding Socket Weld Assembly says:

In preparing the joint for welding, the pipe or tube should be inserted into the socket until reaching its full depth, and then withdrawn approximately 1/16″ (1.6 mm) from the contact point between the pipe end and the socket shoulder. This bottoming clearance serves to mitigate residual stress at the weld root that may arise during weld metal solidification.

The accompanying image illustrates the X measurement for the expansion gap.

However, a notable drawback of Socket Weld flanges is the necessity for this gap. Particularly in stainless steel pipe systems, corrosive products can lead to corrosion issues within the gap between the pipe and flanges. Consequently, in certain processes, the use of these flanges may be prohibited. While I'm not an expert in this field, there's a wealth of information available online regarding various forms of corrosion.

Advantages:

Socket weld flanges offer a viable alternative to threaded flanges, helping to minimize the risk of leakage. They eliminate the need for beveling before welding and ensure that welding occurs outside of the pipe, thus preventing penetration into the pipe bore.

These flanges are particularly recommended for applications where internal welding operations pose challenges. The socket weld construction effectively eliminates internal pockets and mitigates issues such as warpage due to welding heat and damage to the flange face caused by weld spatter.

Additionally, socket weld flanges maintain constant internal pressure as they slide onto the pipe, contributing to enhanced fatigue life compared to other types of flanges.

Disadvantages:

Indeed, welding a socket weld flange requires a higher level of skill from the welder, as they must ensure that the expanding gap between the pipe and shoulder measures precisely 1/16 inch. This meticulous process is crucial because any deviation from the specified gap size can lead to crack defects, particularly in corrosive environments such as those with stainless steel pipes. The presence of cracks between the pipe and flange can result in corrosive issues, rendering socket weld flanges incompatible with such environments.

In contrast, butt welding is often preferred in corrosive or radioactive environments. This method involves welding completely through the pipe from the outside to the inside, creating a stronger and more anti-corrosive connection. By eliminating the solid buildup at the joint that can occur with socket weld flanges, butt welding helps prevent operational and maintenance problems associated with corrosion.
