An ASTM A335 P22 ring type joint flange is a flange with a machined groove for a metal ring gasket, for use with ASTM A335 P22 pipe. ASTM A335 P22 itself is a pipe or plate specification, so the matching ring type joint flange is made to ASTM A182 F22 — which is what we supply for P22 lines. RTJ flanges are used for high pressure and temperature — typically Class 600 and above, and on wellhead and API equipment. The metal ring deforms into the groove to seal.

ASTM A335 P22 Ring Type Joint Flange: Why P22 for ring type joint flanges
RTJ flanges are used for high pressure and temperature — typically Class 600 and above, and on wellhead and API equipment. The metal ring deforms into the groove to seal. In ASTM A335 P22, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Carbon and low-alloy flanges carry most utility, hydrocarbon and high-temperature service. ASTM A335 P22 is picked for high-pressure steam and hydrogen service up to about 580 °C. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Power plants — High-pressure steam lines. |
| B16.5 material group | 1.10 — Group 1.10 applies to A182 F22 Class 3. Chrome-moly welds usually need PWHT; the code sets thickness exemptions. |
| Bolting | ASTM A193 B7 studs with A194 2H nuts; B16 with Gr 4 or 7 nuts where the temperature calls for it |
| Welding to carbon steel | Matching carbon or low-alloy filler is used; joints to stainless need ER309L |
| Matching filler | ER90S-B3 / E9018-B3 |

Which ring gasket goes with an RTJ flange?
Oval or octagonal rings to ASME B16.20, in a material softer than the flange groove.
What pressure rating does a ASTM A335 P22 ring type joint flange have?
It depends on class and temperature. ASTM A335 P22 forgings are in ASME B16.5 material group 1.10; read your class column in that group's table at the design temperature.
Can ASTM A335 P22 ring type joint flanges be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — matching carbon or low-alloy filler is used; joints to stainless need ER309L.
Which standard covers ASTM A335 P22 ring type joint flanges?
The material is ASTM A182 F22; dimensions follow ASME B16.5 · ASME B16.20. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
