Adapter And Flange Assembly

An Adapter and Flange Assembly is a type of fitting used in the supply class Hose, Pipe, Tube, Lubrication, and Railing Fittings. It belongs to the supply group Pipe, Tubing, Hose, and Fittings.

An adapter is a device that connects two different types of fittings or components together. It allows for the transition between different sizes, types, or materials of fittings. Adapters are commonly used in plumbing, hydraulic systems, and other applications where compatibility between different components is required.

A flange assembly, on the other hand, is a type of connection used to join two pipes or tubes together. It consists of a flange, which is a flat, circular disc with holes for bolts, and a gasket, which is placed between the flanges to create a seal. Flange assemblies are commonly used in industrial piping systems to provide a secure and leak-proof connection.

When combined, an Adapter and Flange Assembly allows for the connection of pipes, tubes, or hoses with different sizes or types of fittings using a flange connection. This type of assembly is often used in applications where a secure and reliable connection is required, such as in oil and gas pipelines, chemical processing plants, or water treatment facilities.
