AWWA C207 Carbon Steel Flange

The AWWA C207 A105 carbon steel flange represents a synergistic blend of
durability, reliability, and adaptability, making it an essential component for
various industrial and municipal water systems. Designed in accordance with the
American Water Works Association (AWWA) standards, this flange is engineered to
meet the rigorous demands of piping systems in a range of applications,
including water treatment plants, wastewater facilities, and other industrial
operations.
Specifications and Compliance
Manufactured from high-quality A105 carbon steel, the AWWA C207 flange adheres
to stringent quality control standards, ensuring consistent performance and
longevity. The A105 specification corresponds to the American Society for
Testing and Materials (ASTM) guidelines pertaining to carbon steel for piping
components. It includes characteristics such as a minimum yield strength of
36,000 psi and a minimum tensile strength of 58,000 psi, ensuring that the
flange can withstand high-pressure environments without compromising structural
integrity.
An important aspect of this Carbon Steel Flange is its compliance with the AWWA
C207 standard, which specifies the design, material, testing, and fabrication
requirements for steel flanges used in municipal waterworks. The AWWA standard
ensures that these flanges have the necessary mechanical properties and
compatibility with other components in water distribution systems.
Design Features
The AWWA C207 A105 flange features a flat face design, optimized for leak-free
performance. It typically comes with drilled holes around its perimeter for
easy bolting and secure connections, thus facilitating efficient installation
and maintenance. The flange's design typically includes flat, raised, or
beveled faces, which allow for compatibility with various piping systems and
connection configurations.
The dimensions of the flange are standardized, ensuring its interoperability
with AWWA Standards as well as ANSI/ASME (American National Standards
Institute/American Society of Mechanical Engineers) standards for flanged
connections. This interoperability is crucial for maintenance and replacement
in existing systems, helping to minimize downtime and operational disruptions.
