Flange Slip-On Raised Face (SORF)

A Slip-On Raised Face (SORF) flange is a type of flange that slides over the end of a pipe and is then welded in place. It features a raised face around the bore, which improves the sealing by compressing the gasket more effectively. SORF flanges are popular in various industries for their ease of installation and cost-effectiveness. They are suitable for medium pressure and temperature applications and are commonly used in the oil and gas, chemical, and water treatment industries.
