An Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT socket weld flange is a flange with a counterbore socket into which the pipe is inserted and fillet-welded, made from Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT to ASTM B564. Socket weld flanges suit small-bore, high-pressure lines, usually 2" and under. A 1.6 mm (1/16") expansion gap is left at the bottom of the socket before welding.

Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT Socket Weld Flange — questions buyers ask
Why leave a gap in a socket weld?
The gap lets the pipe expand during welding without cracking the fillet weld. ASME B31.3 requires it.
Which standard covers Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT socket weld flanges?
The material is ASTM B564; 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 Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT socket weld 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.
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.
