- Same here. above class 600#, our preference is RTJ with oval type gasket
(not the hex). If you want to know the nuts and bolts of Flange design, i
recommend "design of process equipment" by kanti k. mahajan - look for
chapter 2. the other excellent source is the taylor forge catalog no. 722.
- For hydrogen service, the weld neck raised faced is ok but used xs and
material conforming to astm a182 gr f11 class 1. our application is limited
to 8"NPS with max temp/pressure of 550C/2550 kpa. normally the piping
material for hydrogen service is cr-mo. got to take care also of proper
welding procedure.
hope this help.
