C71500 Copper Nickel Socketweld Flange Class 150, Cupro Nickel 70/30 RF SW Flange​

1.Product Description

The Copper Nickel Socket Weld Flange is manufactured from high-quality 70/30 Copper Nickel Alloy (CuNi 70/30, UNS C71500) in compliance with ASME B16.5 standard. This forged flange features a Class 150 pressure rating and socket weld connection type. The socket weld design allows the pipe to be inserted into a recessed area of the flange and welded around the outer diameter, creating a strong, leak-proof permanent connection ideal for high-pressure systems . The 70/30 copper-nickel alloy consists of approximately 70% copper and 30% nickel, with trace amounts of iron (0.6-1.0%) and manganese (0.5-1.5%), providing excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistanc.

2. Applications

Due to the alloy's exceptional resistance to seawater corrosion and biofouling, CuNi 70/30 flanges are widely used in :

• Marine & Offshore Engineering: Seawater cooling systems, shipbuilding, desalination plants, offshore platforms

• Petrochemical Industry: Chemical processing, heat exchangers, pressure vessels

• Power Generation: Nuclear and thermal power plant cooling systems

• Naval Applications: Naval ship piping systems (DEF STAN 02-879 compliant)

• Industrial Applications: Hydraulic pipelines, firewater systems, fish farming cages

3. Product Functions

The Copper Nickel Socket Weld Flange serves the following functions in piping systems :

1. Pipe Connection: Provides a reliable, leak-proof connection between pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment via bolting with bolts and specialized gaskets to ensure secure pressure-tight seals

2. System Access Point: Allows for easy disassembly and maintenance of piping systems

3. Pressure Containment: Safely contains system pressure up to Class 150 rating (and higher for other classes)

4. Flow Direction Control: Facilitates changes in piping direction when used with elbows or tees

5. Equipment Isolation: When used with blind flanges, can isolate sections of the piping system
