Type 02 Flange

Type 02 is a loose or swivel flange (Loose plate flange with welding ring or collar).

Characteristics of Type 02:

• The flange is not welded directly to the pipe but is “loose” and held in place by a stub (collar or welded ring);
• Mainly used in systems where frequent maintenance or disassembly is required;
• Allows easy alignment of bolt holes;
• Typically used with plastic linings, stainless steel, or in systems where direct welding of the flange must be avoided.
