Industries and Applications We Supply

Industry Applications
Oil & Gas Industry
  • Upstream Operations: Turkey’s growing oil and gas exploration sector in the Black Sea and southeastern provinces relies on slip-on flanges for wellhead connections, gathering systems, and early production facilities. The ease of installation makes SO flanges ideal for remote field locations where welding expertise may be limited and project schedules are tight.

    Recent discoveries in the Sakarya Gas Field require extensive subsea and onshore infrastructure where Class 600# and 900# slip-on flanges connect production manifolds, metering skids, and separation equipment. The dual-weld design provides adequate strength for moderate-pressure gas gathering while keeping costs manageable for large-diameter flow lines.

    Midstream Applications: Turkey’s strategic pipeline network, including connections to the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline (TANAP) and regional distribution systems operated by BOTAS, utilizes slip-on flanges extensively in meter stations, pressure regulation facilities, and valve stations. Class 300# and 600# carbon steel slip-on flanges are standard for natural gas distribution networks crossing Turkey’s diverse terrain.

    Slip-on flanges facilitate quick maintenance and valve replacement across Turkey’s 15,000+ km natural gas transmission and distribution network. Their economic advantage becomes significant in large infrastructure projects requiring hundreds or thousands of flange connections.

    Downstream Refining: Turkey’s major refineries—Tupras Izmit, Tupras Izmir (Aliaga), Tupras Batman, and Star Refinery Izmir—specify slip-on flanges for non-critical process units, utility systems, and auxiliary equipment.

    The cost savings of slip-on flanges versus weld neck alternatives allows Turkish refineries to optimize capital expenditure while maintaining reliable connections in supporting systems.

    Offshore Platforms: Turkey’s Black Sea and Mediterranean offshore installations use duplex and super duplex slip-on flanges for seawater cooling, fire water systems, and auxiliary piping where high corrosion resistance is needed but extreme pressures aren’t encountered.

Petrochemical & Chemical Processing
  • Petrochemical Complexes: Turkey’s petrochemical sector, concentrated in Petkim (Izmir), Tupras facilities, and emerging complexes, employs slip-on flanges throughout utility systems, cooling circuits, and lower-temperature process units.

    Stainless steel slip-on flanges (F304L, F316L) serve chemical processing applications involving corrosive media where the dual-weld design provides adequate corrosion resistance.

    Chemical Manufacturing: Turkey’s chemical industry in Gebze, Kocaeli, Izmir, and other industrial zones produces fertilizers, industrial chemicals, polymers, and specialty chemicals. Slip-on flanges connect reactor vessels, distillation columns, storage tanks, and transfer piping where operating conditions fall within SO flange capabilities.

    F316L slip-on flanges provide excellent resistance to sulfuric acid and chloride-containing chemicals common in Turkish chemical plants.

Power Generation
  • Thermal Power Plants: Turkey’s coal-fired and natural gas-fired power stations use slip-on flanges extensively in boiler feed water systems, condensate return, cooling water circuits, and auxiliary steam systems.

    Combined Cycle Power Plants: Modern combined cycle facilities utilize slip-on flanges in HRSG auxiliary systems, water treatment units, and chemical injection systems.

    Renewable Energy Facilities: Turkey’s expanding geothermal power installations employ stainless steel and duplex slip-on flanges resistant to geothermal brine corrosion.

Water & Wastewater Treatment
  • Municipal Water Treatment: Major Turkish cities operate large-scale water treatment plants where slip-on flanges dominate due to cost-effectiveness and ease of installation.

    Wastewater Treatment Plants: Slip-on flanges connect aeration basins, clarifiers, disinfection systems, and sludge handling equipment where corrosive wastewater requires coated carbon steel or stainless steel materials.

    Desalination Plants: Duplex F51 and super duplex F53 slip-on flanges dominate seawater intake, reverse osmosis systems, and brine discharge applications due to high chloride resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What is the difference between slip-on flanges and weld neck flanges, and when should I use each in Turkish applications?


Slip-on flanges slip over the pipe end and are fillet welded inside and outside, while weld neck flanges have a tapered hub that butt-welds to the pipe.

Slip-On Advantages: Lower cost, easier installation, no beveling required, allows fit-up adjustment.
Weld Neck Advantages: Higher strength, better for high pressure/temperature, superior fatigue resistance.
Use slip-on flanges for Turkish applications with pressures up to 600# class, moderate temperatures, low cyclic loading—such as utility systems, cooling water, low-pressure steam, and general process piping in refineries and chemical plants.
Use weld neck flanges for high-pressure process units (900# and above), high-temperature steam (above 400°C), severe cyclic conditions, and critical applications where flange failure would have serious safety or environmental consequences.

For most Turkish industrial applications—municipal water, building HVAC, standard process piping—slip-on flanges provide adequate performance at significant cost savings.

Q2: How long does delivery take to major Turkish cities like Istanbul, Ankara, and Izmir?

Sea Freight: 18-24 days to Turkish ports (Ambarlı, Mersin, Izmir) from our manufacturing facility, including port clearance and customs processing. Additional 1-3 days for inland transport to industrial zones.
Air Freight: 5-7 days for urgent requirements to Istanbul, Ankara, or Izmir airports.
Expedited Production: Fast-track manufacturing can reduce production to 7-10 days versus standard 14-21 days.
Lead times vary by order size, material availability, and testing requirements. Standard carbon steel flanges in common sizes ship fastest, while special alloys or extensive NDT may require additional time.

Q3: Can you supply slip-on flanges with Turkish Standards (TSE) certification?


Yes, Werner Flanges can provide slip-on flanges compliant with Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) requirements when specified. While ASME B16.5 and ASTM standards are widely accepted in Turkish industrial projects, TSE certification can be coordinated through approved Turkish testing laboratories.


For European-standard projects in Turkey, we also provide PED 2014/68/EU compliance with Module certificates as required.

Q4: What material should I choose for seawater applications in Turkish coastal facilities?


For Turkish coastal applications—common along Marmara, Aegean, Mediterranean, and Black Sea coasts—material selection is critical for long-term performance.

Best Choice – Super Duplex F53/F55: Ultimate corrosion resistance to chlorides, pitting, and crevice corrosion. Recommended for offshore platforms, desalination plants, and critical seawater systems.
Good Choice – Duplex F51: Excellent chloride resistance, cost-effective for seawater cooling systems and marine piping.
Acceptable Choice – 316L Stainless Steel: Adequate for intermittent seawater contact or treated seawater. Not recommended for continuous raw seawater service.
Not Recommended – 304 Stainless Steel or Carbon Steel: Poor performance in seawater; risk of pitting and corrosion.

Q5: Do you provide third-party inspection services for Turkish projects?


Yes, third-party inspection by internationally recognized agencies can be arranged:

  • TÜV (TÜV Nord, TÜV SÜD, TÜV Rheinland): Widely accepted in Turkey
  • Bureau Veritas (BV): Extensive Turkish presence
  • SGS: Global coverage with Turkish operations
  • DNV: Specialized for oil and gas applications
  • Lloyd’s Register: Marine and offshore focus
  • TSE: Turkish national certification body


Inspectors can witness raw material verification, dimensional inspection, mechanical testing, NDT (UT, MPI, LPI, RT), heat treatment, final visual inspection, marking, and documentation review. Scheduling is coordinated to meet Turkish project timelines.

Q6: Can you manufacture custom slip-on flanges for non-standard Turkish requirements?


Yes. Custom flange capabilities include non-standard bore sizes, modified bolt patterns, enhanced thickness, special facings, material upgrades, coatings, low-temperature testing, NACE compliance, and custom marking per Turkish project requirements. Lead times are typically 4-6 weeks longer than standard flanges depending on complexity.

Q7: How do I determine the correct pressure class for my Turkish application?


Selecting the correct pressure class requires considering maximum operating pressure and temperature. Consult ASME B16.5 pressure-temperature rating tables for your material grade. Ratings decrease as temperature increases.

  • Municipal Water, HVAC, Low-Pressure Utilities: Class 150#
  • Process Piping, Medium-Pressure Steam, Chemical Plants: Class 300#
  • High-Pressure Steam, Refinery Units: Class 600# or 900#
  • Ultra-High-Pressure, Specialized Applications: Class 1500# or 2500#


Our technical team can assist with pressure class selection based on your Turkish application parameters.
