Description
PP Backing Rings to PN10/16 standards are used to provide mechanical strength and stability to CPVC stub flange assemblies within bolted flange connections. Manufactured from chemically resistant polypropylene and reinforced with a steel core, they deliver the rigidity required to maintain secure, pressure-rated joints in industrial pipework systems.
When installed with CPVC stub flanges and appropriate gaskets, these backing rings help distribute bolt loads evenly across the flange face, reducing the risk of distortion and leakage. The polypropylene outer layer shields the steel core from corrosive environments, making the backing ring suitable for use with aggressive fluids and harsh operating conditions.
Designed to match PN10 and PN16 flange drilling patterns, these backing rings integrate seamlessly into Corzan CPVC pipework systems where European flange standards are specified.
