An ASTM A335 P22 swivel ring flange is a flange with a rotating ring that allows bolt holes to be aligned after welding, for use with ASTM A335 P22 pipe. ASTM A335 P22 itself is a pipe or plate specification, so the matching swivel ring flange is made to ASTM A182 F22 — which is what we supply for P22 lines. 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.

ASTM A335 P22 Swivel Ring Flange: Why P22 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 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 |

Other ASTM A335 P22 flanges
ASTM A335 P22 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 ASTM A335 P22 swivel ring 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 swivel ring 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 swivel ring flanges?
The material is ASTM A182 F22; 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 ASTM A335 P22 swivel ring flange?
