LEADING MANUFACTURER & EXPORTER OF
WELD NECK FLANGES TO THAILAND
With over 20 years of specialized experience in precision flange manufacturing, Werner Flanges has established itself as a trusted supplier of weld neck flanges to Thailand's dynamic oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation sectors. Our manufacturing facility combines advanced CNC machining technology with rigorous quality control processes, enabling us to deliver flanges that exceed the demanding standards of Thailand's major industrial operators including PTT, Thai Oil (TOP), PTTGC, and IRPC.
Thailand’s thriving industrial base—particularly in the Map Ta Phut petrochemical complex in Rayong province and the Bangkok metropolitan region—requires reliable piping solutions for complex fluid handling systems. Weld neck flanges are critical components in these applications, engineered for the extreme pressures and temperatures encountered in oil refining, gas processing, and power generation industries. Our comprehensive product range covers all ASME B16.5 pressure classes (150#, 300#, 600#, 900#, 1500#, 2500#) in sizes from 1/2″ to 60″, manufactured in carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and duplex materials.
Our Thailand-focused logistics network ensures delivery to major industrial hubs within 18-22 days via sea freight to Laem Chabang Port (Thailand’s primary deep-sea gateway) or Bangkok Port, with expedited 5-7 day air freight options for critical shipments. Every flange exported includes comprehensive documentation: Material Test Certificates (MTC), PMI reports, dimensional inspection data, and heat treatment charts—ensuring full compliance with Thai industrial standards and international regulations.
Weld neck flanges feature a tapered hub transitioning into a cylindrical neck, which is welded directly into the pipe. This design creates an exceptionally strong connection distributing stress evenly across the flange diameter, making them the preferred choice for high-pressure, high-temperature, and critical applications.

Industries and Applications We Supply

Oil & Gas Industry |
Thailand’s offshore platforms in the Gulf of Thailand, integrated refineries (Thai Oil, PTTGC, IRPC), and midstream pipeline operations depend on ASME B16.5 weld neck flanges:
Upstream Production: Wellhead connections at 500-3,000 PSI require 600#-1500# flanges in A105 (general crude) or F11 (hydrogen service >500 PSI H₂). Subsea pipeline terminations use 300#-600# A105 flanges, with F51 duplex specified for subsea corrosion exposure. Refining Operations: Crude distillation units operate at 600-900°F and 50-200 PSI using 300# A105 inlet/outlet flanges. Hydrotreating units (500-3,000 PSI with >500 PSI H₂) exclusively specify ASME B16.5 weld neck flanges in ASTM A350 LF2 or A182 F11 with full NACE MR0175 certification. Hydrogen generation via steam methane reforming (1,500-1,800°F, 300-400 PSI) uses 900#-1500# A182 F91 flanges with specialized thermal protection. Midstream & Distribution: Product pipelines to Laem Chabang and Bangkok Ports use 150#-300# A105 flanges, 4″-36″ diameters. Marine terminals feature 150#-300# flanges for tank nozzles and 600# for bottom-loading pressure control systems. Petrochemical IndustryMap Ta Phut Petrochemical Complex (one of Asia’s largest) utilizes weld neck flanges throughout operations: Cracking Furnaces: Ethane/naphtha cracking at 1,500°F+ uses 900# ASME B16.5 weld neck flanges in A182 F91 with thermal protection systems. Polymerization Reactors: 250-500°F, 500-3,000 PSI operation uses 600#-1500# flanges in A105 (general service) or F11 (hydrogen-containing processes). Specialty Chemical Synthesis: MMA, PO, and acrylonitrile production in 2,000-3,000 PSI autoclaves requires 2500# small-diameter (1″-4″) flanges with full ASME B31.3 and Section VIII certification. |

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Q: weld neck vs. slip-on flange differences?
- weld neck flanges feature a cylindrical neck welded directly into the pipe—tapered hub provides superior stress distribution and strength, ideal for high-pressure/high-temperature critical applications. slip-on flanges slide over the pipe with dual-side fillet welds—less robust, suitable only for non-critical systems. thai petrochemical and refinery applications standardize weld neck for critical piping.
- Q: what pressure class should i specify?
- selection depends on maximum system pressure. common classes: 150# (285 psi), 300# (740 psi), 600# (1480 psi), 900# (2220 psi). apply a 1.5× safety factor. for example, a 500 psi system would typically use 300# flanges.
- Q: what material for corrosive service?
- carbon steel a105 for non-corrosive service, type 304l for mild corrosion or seawater, type 316l for enhanced chloride resistance, duplex f51/f53 for extreme environments. thailand’s coastal petrochemical facilities typically specify 316l or duplex due to chloride and humidity corrosion risk.
- Q: delivery time to thailand?
- standard sea freight: 18-22 days to laem chabang plus 1-3 days local delivery. expedited air freight: 5-7 days total.
- Q: custom sizes/specifications available?
- yes. we can manufacture non-standard sizes, specialty materials (hastelloy, monel, inconel), custom coatings, and integrated instrumentation. custom projects typically require 6-8 weeks.
- Q: suitable for hydrogen processing?
- yes. asme b16.5 weld neck flanges in astm a350 lf2 or a182 f11, nace mr0175 verified, are standard for hydrogen processing plants in thailand, including pttgc and irpc facilities.
