IS Flanges: Standards Overview & Indian/Global Context

IS (Indian Standards) for flanges are the national standards of India, crucial for industrial components within the country and increasingly recognized in global projects. Dipti Metal Industries, as a leading global manufacturer, stockist, and supplier, offers a comprehensive range of flanges conforming to key IS standards, ensuring the best quality and compliance for a large variety of projects worldwide, particularly those requiring Indian specifications.

• Key IS Flange Standards:
  • IS 2062 (Steel for general structural purposes): Often referenced for material grades for carbon steel flanges, which we use in manufacturing.
  • IS 6392 (Flanges for pipes, valves and fittings): General standard for steel flanges, specifying dimensions and pressure ratings, guiding our production.
  • IS 1538 (Cast Iron Pipe Fittings for pressure purposes): Covers cast iron flanges, also within our supply scope.
  • IS 7092 (Steel Plates for flanges): For material specifications specifically for plate flanges, processed in our manufacturing.
  • IS 13111 (Weld Neck Flanges): Specifies dimensions for weld neck flanges, which we manufacture to precise standards.
• Pressure Nominal (PN) & Imperial Class Ratings:
  • IS flanges utilize both PN (Pressure Nominal) designations (e.g., PN6, PN10, PN16, PN20, PN25, PN40, PN63, PN100, PN160, PN250, PN320, PN400) and sometimes imperial Class ratings (e.g., Class 150#, 300#, 600#) for pressure classes.
  • This dual nomenclature allows for compatibility with both European (EN) and American (ASME) systems. We manufacture and stock flanges for the biggest pressure demands.
• Types of Flanges Covered: IS standards cover a full range of flange types, all of which our manufacturing capabilities can produce:
  • Weld Neck
  • Plate / Slip-On
  • Blind
  • Lap Joint
  • Screwed (Threaded)
• Material Specifications: IS standards specify precise material grades (e.g., IS 2062 Gr. E250/E350 for carbon steel; IS 6911 Gr. 304/316 for stainless steel; IS 318 for bronze) which are specific to India but often have direct international equivalents. We select and process these materials in our manufacturing.

Our deep understanding of IS standards and their cross-referencing with international norms ensures that Dipti Metal Industries is a top global leader in manufacturing and supplying compliant flanges, providing comprehensive and dependable solutions for large-scale projects requiring Indian and global specifications worldwide.

Flange Facing Types for IS Flanges, Precision Manufactured

The flange facing is crucial for establishing a secure, leak-proof seal with the gasket. IS standards specify various facing types, and we manufacture and supply IS flanges with the most common and effective configurations, ensuring precision engineering:

• Raised Face (RF):
  • Description: The gasket surface is raised above the bolting circle face. This is a very common facing type in IS standards, precision-manufactured by us.
  • Usage: Designed to concentrate the compressive load on a smaller gasket area, increasing the joint's ability to contain pressure. Used with various non-metallic and metallic gaskets.
  • Applications: Widely used across almost all industries for general and medium-to-high pressure service.
• Flat Face (FF):
  • Description: The gasket surface is in the same plane as the bolting circle face. Our manufacturing ensures perfect flatness.
  • Usage: Requires a full-face gasket and is typically used when connecting to cast iron flanges or other low-pressure equipment that cannot withstand the bending stresses caused by a raised face.
  • Applications: Low-pressure, non-critical services, often with non-metallic full-face gaskets.
• Tongue & Groove (TG) and Male & Female (MF):
  • Description: These are matching faces designed to contain the gasket and ensure precise alignment, which we manufacture with high accuracy.
  • Usage: Provide a more robust and confined gasket seating area, especially for specialized services.
  • Applications: Used in specific applications where positive gasket retention and enhanced leak protection are required.
• Ring Type Joint (RTJ):
  • Description: Features a machined groove into which a metallic ring gasket (oval or octagonal cross-section) is fitted. We precision machine these grooves in our manufacturing process.
  • Usage: Provides a metal-to-metal seal, creating a very strong, leak-proof connection. Ideal for high-pressure, high-temperature, and severe corrosive applications where positive sealing is paramount.
  • Applications: Heavily used in oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation industries for critical connections. Considered a premium choice for extreme conditions.

Our comprehensive stock includes IS flanges, both manufactured by us and sourced, with these facing types, ensuring Dipti Metal Industries is the best source for optimal sealing solutions in piping systems worldwide. We are a top global manufacturer and exporter of diverse IS flange solutions.
