Good advice, Sam. See also:

<a href="http://www.boltex.com/facings.htm">http://www.boltex.com/facings.htm</a>

And look around http://www.pipingdesign.com/flanges.html for more information.

The pages linked at Piping Design Central are not just ads for companies (if they were, I'd be a multi-millionaire already), they all feature good technical information. Send in your own favourite pages if you wish.
