What Is The Difference Between Class 300 And 600 Flange

  • 300 LB flange are designed for low pressure applications.
  • Class 600 flanges are designed for high pressure applications
  • MPa = 515 (min)
  • 300# flanges temperature is 570 psi
  • 600 lb flange temperature is 1,150 psi
  • 600# flanges are generally thicker than 300 lbs flanges
  • 300# flanges are used in water distribution and chemical processing
  • 600 lbs flanges are used in oil and gas production and industrial applications
