    Maximum Torque Settings For Composite Flanges

    Uploaded by

    Julius Contreras
    This document provides maximum torque settings for bolted composite flange connections for various nominal flange diameters and pressure ratings. It specifies that flat face connections use the flat face torque values, while connections with backing rings or only one fixed flange use the raised face values. The note explains that support rings must be used for composite fixed flanges mounted against raised face flanges to avoid bending damage from the torque settings. It concludes by stating the torque ratings are maximums to prevent flange damage and are based on new ungreased bolts.

    Note: For all Backing Rings the Raised Face values are applicable
    Connections with two Fixed Flanges or one Fixed Flange and one Blind Flange (with full face gaskets) are flat face situations.
    All other connections (e.g. with at least one Backing Ring) are raised face situations.
    The composite Fixed Flanges have a flat face. If these flanges are mounted against a raised face flange, support rings must be
    used outside the bolt circle to avoid damage of the composite flange as a result of bending, caused by the torque settings. If
    this is not possible, the torque setting must be reduced, according to the raised face values indicated above.
    In order to reach the maximum torque settings, use the file bolted connections/tightening sequences as indicated at our
    website (tab engineering guide), and steps of 2Nm for dimensions up to DN80 and 5Nm up to DN300 for all raised face
    situations. For all other situations use steps of 10Nm up to DN500 and 20Nm above.

    The torque ratings, to be used for composite flanges are normally determined by the gasket which is used. Please consult your
    gasket supplier which torque rating is recommended. In case the gasket requires a higher torque then the maximum allowable
    torque of the flange, please change type of gasket.

    The indicated torque ratings for composite flanges are maximum ratings to prevent flange damage. These torque ratings are
    based on new un-greased bolts.
