TONGUE AND GROOVE FLANGE

Tongue and groove flange face is composed of a tongue face and groove face and the gasket is put in the groove. Faces of the flange must be matched. Tongue flange face has raise ring machined on the flange face while the mating grooving flange has a matching depression which is matched into its face

Tongue-and-groove facings are standardized in both large and small tongue and groove flange, different from male-and-female in that the inside diameters of groove and tongue do not extend into the flange base. Thus maintaining the gasket on its inner and outer diameter.

Where are tongue and groove joint flange used?

It is use in oil and gas pipeline, chemical industry, plumbing, water supply system, paper & pulp industry, power plant, fabrication industry, structural pipe and heat exchanger.

Small tongue and groove flange Advantages

The gasket of this flange in the groove will not be ejected, squeezing area is the smallest, the gasket force uniform. Therefore the gasket is not in direct contact with the medium, it is minimal affected by the corrosion of the medium and the insertion of the pressure mechanism. Due to the narrow sealing surface, the required bolt force is small, which is suitable for high pressure, the reason of strict sealing requirements, such as high pressure, explosive, flammable, toxic media and other circumstances.

Grooved steel flange Disadvantages

The flange structure is complex and its gasket is squeezed in the groove is not easy to clear, replacement of gasket is difficult. This kind of flange should be secured in transportation to avoid bump and distort.

What is the difference between tongue and groove and male and female flanges?

Tongue and groove flange facing are regulate in small and large type. They are different from the inside diameter i.e. male and female. It does not expand into the base of flange. This helps in maintain the outer and inner diameter of its gasket.
