On the English site this URL is titled Lap Joint Flange: a loose backing flange used with a stub end so the flange can rotate for bolt holes. The Chinese page at the same slug is titled socket-weld (SW). This English page describes lap-joint flanges. HuaboPipe supplies them to order, usually with a matching stub end.

How to choose

Use lap-joint + stub end when joints are opened often or bolt holes must rotate. Order the stub end with the flange. Do not treat this page as a socket-weld flange.

FAQ

Do we need a stub end?

Yes. A lap-joint flange is incomplete without the matching stub end.

Maximum size?

Covered B16.5 sizes, plus larger sizes from drawings up to about DN3000.

Same as socket weld?

No. Socket weld inserts the pipe. Lap joint is a loose flange on a stub end.

Non-standard?

Yes. Send a drawing. We reply within 24 hours.
