A Lap Joint Flange is a type of flange that provides an easy and economical way to access pipes for inspection and modification work. It consists of two parts: a stub end, which is butt-welded to the pipe, and a loose backing flange whose outer diameter matches the flanged joint. The backing flange can then be bolted to another mating surface, such as a valve or pipe. It does not require on-site welding, making it perfect for applications where welding can\u2019t be done safely or quickly enough. It also provides more flexibility in assembly by allowing easy dismantling without needing special tools or machines. ASME b16.47 Lap joint flanges<\/strong> are commonly used in petrochemical processing equipment where corrosion-proofing is needed because they are relatively cost-effective and easier to install than other pipe fittings like weld necks or slip-on flanges.<\/p>\n
