ASTM A307 Socket Weld Flanges

ASTM A307 Socket Weld Flanges refers to the assembly of standard carbon steel Socket Weld Flanges (typically conforming to ASTM A105) utilizing ASTM A307 Grade A or B bolting materials. Socket Weld Flanges (SWF) are designed for smaller bore, high-pressure, but non-critical piping systems. They feature a recessed area to receive the pipe, which is then welded around the exterior. The A307 specification covers carbon steel bolting materials for general purpose applications under mild pressure and temperature conditions (up to 450°F). Zeron Fastners supplies these components for general industrial utility lines, process piping, and systems where leak integrity is desired but the demanding strength of high-alloy bolting is not necessary.
