ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

This is a flat side square flange of KAB series. Size availability between 1/2" to 2 1/2" with socket weld (weld-in) connection. This square flange is able to withstand maximum pressure up to 280 KGF/CM2 and is made to JIS F7806 standard.

WHAT IS A SQUARE FLANGE?

Square flange is used to connect to a plain end pipes or component, allowing a seamless flow of liquid throughout the hydraulic system. It is commonly used in high-pressure connections with small diameter pipes. To create a strong leak proof connection, welding will be done at the recessed part of the flange. A complete set of square flange has 4 components. One flat flange, one O-ring flange, 4 pieces of hexagon or Allen cap screws, and 1 piece of NBR O-ring.

WHAT ARE THE AVAILABLE CONFIGURATIONS?

There are 4 types of square flange configurations;

• SHAB is commonly used in the hydraulic industry with a maximum working pressure of 210kg/cm². It is installed with hexagon bolts.
• SSAB has a smaller body than SHAB. It also has a maximum working pressure of 210kg/cm² and it is installed using Allan cap screws.
• KAB flanges are able to withstand higher working pressure up to 280kg/cm² or 350kg/cm², depending on the type. It has a similar configuration method as SHAB.
• Blind square flange is used to terminate the end connection of a fluid flow.
