We manufacture carbon steel flanges in all pressure classes from 150# to 2500# and sizes ranging from ½” to 60″, ensuring comprehensive coverage for every industrial application in Bangladesh.

With Bangladesh’s ambitious industrial growth targets and increasing focus on energy security through LNG imports and power sector expansion, the demand for reliable, high-performance piping components has never been greater. Werner Flanges supports this growth by providing engineered weld neck flanges that deliver superior mechanical strength, leak-proof connections, and long-term reliability in high-pressure, high-temperature applications critical to Bangladesh’s industrial success.

Carbon steel flanges are mechanical components manufactured from carbon steel alloys, primarily used to connect pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment in piping systems. These flanges create a bolted joint that allows for easy assembly, disassembly, and maintenance while maintaining pressure integrity and leak-proof connections.
Carbon steel flanges derive their strength from the carbon content in the steel alloy, typically ranging from 0.05% to 2.0% carbon. The most common grade, ASTM A105, contains approximately 0.35% carbon, providing an excellent balance of strength, weldability, and machinability. This makes carbon steel flanges the most economical choice for general-purpose applications in temperatures ranging from -29°C to 427°C.
