3.1.3 The jacket flange for full jacket pipe connection may refer to the requirements of Appendix B of this Standard.
3.1.4 The nominal dimension and nominal pressure applied for flange types are in accordance with those specified in Table 3.1.4.
4 Materials
4.0.1 Materials for steel pipe flange comply with the requirements of Table 4.0.1, its chemical
composition, mechanical property and other technical requirement shall be in accordance with the standards provisions listed in Table 4.0.1.
4.0.3 The flanges (excluding blind flanges) shall be made of forgings (or forging rolling technology) and casting (steel), but shall not be tailor-welding. The blind flanges may be made of steel plate.
4.0.4 Unless otherwise specified in this Standard, the materials for pipe flange shall also
comply with the requirements of relevant standards and codes.
5 Gaskets and bolting for flange
5.0.1 The gasket shall comply with the sealing property of flange joint under working conditions. Acting by pretension load of bolt, gasket stress under pretension and working conditions shall be ensured, and no deleterious deformation and crush can be generated.
