ASME B16.5 Class 150 American Standard Butt-Weld Flange is a standardized pipe fitting adhering to ASME B16.5 specifications and rated for Class 150 pressure (≈270 psi at 100°F), designed to form leak-tight joints via butt welding. It is widely used in low-to-medium pressure systems like municipal water supply, HVAC pipelines, food processing lines, and oil/gas gathering systems, where cost-effectiveness and standard compliance matter.
A key advantage of
ASME B16.5 Class 150 American Standard Butt-Weld Flange lies in its pressure suitability and interchangeability. The Class 150 rating matches most low-pressure industrial and commercial needs, avoiding unnecessary material waste, while ASME B16.5 compliance ensures it fits seamlessly with other American-standard pipes/fittings—simplifying installation and replacement across global projects.
ASME B16.5 Class 150 American Standard Butt-Weld Flange further offers material flexibility and reliability. It is available in carbon steel (A105), stainless steel (304/316L), and ductile iron, adapting to media from potable water to mild chemicals. The butt-weld connection creates a strong, smooth joint that minimizes fluid turbulence and reduces corrosion risks. Whether used in commercial building HVAC systems or rural water distribution lines, it delivers consistent, cost-efficient performance for low-to-medium pressure applications.
