A Duplex 2205 lap joint flange is a loose flange that sits behind a stub end welded to the pipe, made from Duplex 2205 to ASTM A182 F51 / F60. A lap joint flange rotates freely, making bolt alignment easy on lines that are dismantled often. In corrosive service the flange never touches the fluid, so it can be carbon steel while the stub end is the alloy — a big saving.

When to Choose a Lap Joint Flange
A lap joint flange rotates freely, making bolt alignment easy on lines that are dismantled often. In corrosive service the flange never touches the fluid, so it can be carbon steel while the stub end is the alloy — a big saving.
- Used with a stub end (MSS SP-43 or ASME B16.9)
- Flange can be a cheaper material than the stub end
- Lower pressure rating than a weld neck

Duplex 2205 Lap Joint Flange — questions buyers ask
Does a lap joint flange have to be the same alloy as the pipe?
No. Only the stub end touches the fluid, so the backing flange is often carbon steel, saving the cost of an alloy forging.
Which standard covers Duplex 2205 lap joint flanges?
The material is ASTM A182 F51 / F60; dimensions follow ASME B16.5. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Duplex 2205 lap joint flange?
The alloy price, the size and pressure class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
Can you supply Duplex 2205 lap joint flanges to NACE MR0175?
Yes. Duplex 2205 is listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits; state NACE compliance on the order and it is confirmed on the certificate.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 mill certificates as standard, 3.2 with third-party inspection on request, plus dimensional and PMI reports.
