Anchor Flange

Product Description

Anchor Flanges

Anchor flanges are forged fittings put on pipelines and embedded in reinforced concrete blocks to provide structural integrity. The mainline's thermal expansion and contraction are restricted or limited, and built-up stresses are transferred to external buildings or larger foundations. There are many different applications for anchor flanges, including the suction and discharge laterals of a pumping station at a river crossing, points of directional change, connections to equipment at meter runs, and the attachment of subsea piping and risers to the platform structure, among others.
