ABS Flanges

Effast ABS flanges provide a reliable and high-strength solution for connecting lengths of ABS pipe or integrating key components such as valves, flow meters, and instrumentation. Manufactured from WRAS-approved acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), these fittings are designed for secure and long-lasting performance in water, process, and industrial systems. Available in a wide range of inch sizes, each flange is rigorously type tested for compliance with safety and durability standards.

• Material: ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene)
• Connection Type: Flanged (for use with backing rings, gaskets, and bolts)
• Size Range: Multiple inch sizes available
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to +60°C
• Pressure Rating: Up to 15 bar (depending on size and system specification)
• Standards and Approvals:
• WRAS Approved (product-specific certification)
• Type tested for reliability and safety

Effast ABS flanges are installed as part of flanged joint assemblies using the following components:

• Backing rings
• Full-face or ring gaskets
• Bolt sets (typically stainless steel)

Installation Tips:

• Ensure correct alignment of flanged faces before tightening bolts.
• Use appropriate torque settings to avoid overstressing the plastic flange.
• Always use compatible gaskets and clean, debris-free sealing surfaces.
• Avoid excessive mechanical load or unsupported weight near the flange.
• For pipe-to-flange connection, solvent-weld the plain-end flange to the ABS pipe using ABS solvent cement, following standard jointing procedures.

Note: Flanged joints should be inspected regularly, especially in high-pressure or critical installations.
