Flanged olets for Malaysian client
Flanged olets is aso called nipoflange or flangeolet , used to branch pipeline at 90 degrees. It’s manufactured as a combination, in one single solid piece of forged steel, of a standard flange and a branch connection. Flanged olets are manufactured from NPS 1/2” to 12” and rating from 150#to 2500#, RF or RTJ. The available schedule are 10S, STD, XS, S160 and XXS and can be installed on run pipes from NPS 3/4” up to 36”.
To install a flangedolet the piping staff has to weld the nipolet part of the device on the run pipe and bolt the flanged part on the flange of the branch pipe.
Flanged olets are available in different materials, such as carbon steel ASTM A105 (high-temperature service) , ASTM A350 (low-temperature carbon steel), ASTM A182 (stainless steel grades, including duplex and super duplex) and nickel alloy (Inconel, Incoloy, Hastelloy, etc).
Our order for Malaysian client is flanged olets in ASTM A182 F51. It is a duplex stainless steel with a 50:50 austenite, ferrite microstructure. The material combines good mechanical strength and ductility with moderate to good corrosion resistance in a variety of environments.
