DIPTI METAL INDUSTRIES
Dipti Metal Industries is a Leading global API 6A Type 6BX Flange Manufacturer, API 6A Type 6BX 5000 PSI Flange Supplier & API 6A Type 6BX 5000 PSI Flange Exporter of 34.5 MPa (5000 PSI) flanged products for high-integrity, severe service in Mumbai, India. The Type 6BX flange is the most robust connection type in this pressure class, featuring a **bolt-preloaded** design utilizing **BX Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Gaskets**. This combination ensures maximum seal integrity under high pressure, thermal cycling, and external bending moments. We specialize in supplying certified 6BX Flanges, particularly in large nominal sizes (e.g., 13 5/8" to 21 1/4") for critical wellhead and blowout preventer (BOP) applications. We ensure supply meets all material classes (DD, EE, FF) and Product Specification Levels (PSL 1-4), adhering strictly to NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 for sour service. Find certified API 6A 6BX Flanges here.
Founded in 2009 in Mumbai, India, we are a specialized global API 6A Flange Manufacturer and API 6A Type 6BX 5000 PSI Flange Exporter focused on high-integrity components for the energy sector. Our robust manufacturing and rigorous inspection processes are specifically geared towards the **Type 6BX** design, ensuring our 5000 PSI flanges deliver uncompromised performance under extreme conditions. We stock and supply various large nominal sizes (e.g., 13 5/8" to 21 1/4"), complete with material traceability and compliance for upstream oilfield projects globally.
The API 6A Type 6BX connection at 5000 PSI (34.5 MPa) is engineered for high-pressure, high-stress environments. It is defined by its **bolt-preloaded** system and reliance on the **Type BX Ring Gasket** to achieve a reliable metal-to-metal seal that resists internal pressure and external bending loads. This design is preferred for permanent, high-integrity connections on wellhead equipment and BOP stacks where maximum reliability is non-negotiable.
