Flange: Standards, Pipe flanges & Overview

A flange is a protruded ridge, lip or rim, either external or internal, that serves to increase strength (as the flange of a steel beam such as an I-beam or a T-beam); for easy attachment/transfer of contact force with another object (as the flange on the end of a pipe, steam cylinder, etc., the circular or oval flange for securing truck and trailer tail…
