An Inconel 825 swivel ring flange is a flange with a rotating ring that allows bolt holes to be aligned after welding, made from Inconel 825 to ASTM B564. Swivel ring flanges speed up subsea and offshore tie-ins and riser connections, where rotating the whole pipe to line up bolt holes is not possible.

Inconel 825 Swivel Ring Flange: Why 825 for swivel ring flanges
Swivel ring flanges speed up subsea and offshore tie-ins and riser connections, where rotating the whole pipe to line up bolt holes is not possible. In Inconel 825, 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 | Nickel-alloy flanges are used where acids, chlorides or heat defeat stainless. Inconel 825 is picked for sulphuric and phosphoric acid service, chloride stress-corrosion cracking and sour gas. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Sulphuric & phosphoric acid plants — Tank linings, agitators, heat-exchanger baffles in fertiliser and acid production. |
| B16.5 material group | 3.8 — B16.5 does not permit N08825 above 538 °C. |
| Bolting | B7 (coated), B8M or nickel-alloy studs in Inconel 825 (bar to ASTM B425, where applicable), as the project specifies |
| Welding to carbon steel | A nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ERNiFeCr-1 (AWS A5.14) |
| Sour service | Listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits — state it on the order |

Inconel 825 Swivel Ring Flange — questions buyers ask
Where are swivel ring flanges used?
Mainly in subsea and offshore pipelines, risers and spools where alignment in place is difficult.
What pressure rating does a Inconel 825 swivel ring flange have?
It depends on class and temperature. Inconel 825 forgings are in ASME B16.5 material group 3.8; read your class column in that group's table at the design temperature.
Can Inconel 825 swivel ring flanges be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — a nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel.
Which standard covers Inconel 825 swivel ring flanges?
The material is ASTM B564; dimensions follow ISO 27509 / project specs. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Inconel 825 swivel ring 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 Inconel 825 swivel ring flanges be supplied to NACE MR0175?
Inconel 825 (UNS N08825) can be supplied for sour service when the PO specifies NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156; acceptability depends on the material condition, hardness and the environmental limits in that standard, which the purchaser must confirm for the application.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates available on request / as specified in the PO; dimensional reports as required. PMI can be arranged depending on product and requirements, as specified in the PO.
