What is an Insert Flange?
Stainless Insert Flange Company

<<Insert Flanges are a specialty in the arena of pipe size flanges and consist of two parts - the insert and the flange ring. The flange ring is the outer part of the insert flange assembly, containing the bolt holes. Except perhaps for the thickness, it is similar to the standard B16.5 flange beyond the raised face or gasket surface. It's function, along with the bolting, has but one major purpose, and that is to be the clamp that applies the necessary axial force against the insert to seat the gasket and to withstand the pressure and other piping forces and moments. Material selection is relatively simple, considering only atmospheric corrosion, strength, temperature and economy.>>

Refining Demystified (includes photos and diagrams - excellent) Ashland Inc.

<<Spread out over a number of acres, a refinery is a remarkable maze of metal, machinery and manpower. Towers, tanks, process vessels, pipelines, pumps, heat exchangers and compressors are just some of the components of a modern refinery. Operators, engineers, researchers, technicians, craftsmen and maintenance personnel are among those needed to keep a refinery running round-the-clock. A refinery consists of a number of different units, each with a specific purpose, integrated into a processing sequence.>>

Glass Lined Piping Systems
VITCO Corporation

<<30 years experience has proven the long term durability of the glass lined system. The major cost savings which result from elimination of costly cleaning operations easily justify the relatively low initial cost differential for installation of this system. In short, the unique characteristics of the economical Glass Lined System has made it standard for Wastewater Treatment facilities and is leading to development of new products and end uses to solve wide ranging problems relative to lubricity and resistance to corrosion, abrasion, temperature and thermal shock.>>
