ANSI /AWWA StandardsFlanged pipe and fittings are typical components in rigid piping systems. Such systems are particularly suited for above ground installation in the following: water filtration plants, sewagedisposal plants, wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations and industrial plants. U.S. Pipegives special attention to such installations through its Customer Service Department. Theunderground use of the flanged joint is generally not recommended due to the rigidity of thejoint. Unequal settlement or other stressing of such piping may result in excessive strain on theflanges or the pipe.

Flanged Pipe with Threaded FlangesFlanged pipe are fabricated by threading plain end pipe, screwing threaded flange(s) on andmachine-tightening them. The bolt holes are aligned per ANSI/AWWA C115/A21.15. The plainend and the flange are then faced to provide a smooth surface across the end of the pipeand the face of the flange. Pipe barrels and flanges have a taper pipe thread (NPT) inaccordance with ANSI B1.20.1, with thread diameters adapted to Ductile Iron pipe standardoutside diameters. Threaded pipe and threaded flanges are individually fitted and theflanges are not interchangeable.

Flanged pipe are furnished in the following maximum lengths:

Sizes 4"-42" – 17'6"Sizes 3", 48"-64" – 19'6"

Pipe for wastewater service may be furnished in accordance with ASTM 746 StandardSpecification for Ductile Iron Gravity Sewer Pipe. The minimum class thickness for Ductile Ironflanged pipe to be threaded is class 53 for sizes up through 54" and pressure class 350 for 60"and 64" sizes. Greater pipe wall thicknesses can be furnished if so ordered.

Flanges are the solid design and are Ductile Iron in conformance with the requirements ofANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10.

Weights of flanged pipe shown are subject to a minus tolerance of not more than 10% for indi-vidual pieces. To obtain the weight of a short flanged pipe, calculate the pipe weight for thelength from face to face of the flanges and add the weight of two flanges.

The Foreword of ANSI/AWWA C115/A21.15 lists the required information and the options which ifdesired must be specified on the purchase order for flanged pipe, such as size and finished length.See the standard for more details.

Coating SystemsUnless otherwise specified, flanged pipe will be furnished with a standard thickness cement-mortar lining with asphaltic coating inside and outside. Fittings are furnished coated or uncoatedin accordance with the purchasers’ requirements.

NOTE: If a field-applied coating is required forappearance or color coding over FBE coatings, thesmooth finish must be roughened to provide ananchor pattern — a light brush blast or rougheningby coarse sandpaper is recommended.

AccessoriesThe gaskets and bolts to be used with flanged pipe and fittings should be selected by the pur-chaser with due consideration for the particular service and installation requirements. Flangedjoint accessories (bolts, nuts and gaskets) can be furnished by U.S. Pipe if so specified. Rubbergaskets, 1/8" thick, or U.S. Pipe FLANGE-TYTE® Gaskets (4" through 64"size) are recommendedfor normal water or sewage service.

Flange Compatibility and Pressure RatingsThe flanges of C110/A21.10, C115/A21.15 and C153/A21.53 standards conform to the drillingand facing of ANSI B16.1 Class 125 flanges. This B16.1 Class 125 designation leads some toconclude that these AWWA flanges are only rated at 125 psi service which is not correct.C110/A21.10 flanged fittings are rated for 350 psi operating pressure for 3" through 12" sizes,250 psi operating pressure for 14" through 48" sizes and C153/A21.53 fittings are rated for 150psi operating pressure for 54" through 64" sizes. These ratings are at ambient temperatures withat least a 2:1 factor of safety. Special gaskets such as U.S. Pipe’s FLANGE-TYTE® Gaskets arerequired for operating pressures greater than 250 psi.

(Flanges of Ductile Iron pipe and fittings meeting the requirements of ANSI/AWWA C115/A21.15or ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10 cannot be joined with Class 250 ANSI B16.1 flanges.)

CAUTION: U.S. Pipe does not recommend the practice of assembling threaded flanges onpipe in the field. As an accommodation to our customers, U.S. Pipe does provide flangedpipe with unattached threaded flanges when specified. Certain precautions must be takenwhen loose flanges are assembled to the pipe.

1. The threaded portion of the flange and the pipe are custom machined to accommodate theexact diameter of the pipe. In addition, the pipe and flange have been faced in the shopafter proper tightening of the flange on the pipe. The unscrewed loose flange must bemated only with the threaded pipe end on which it had been attached.

2. Extremely high torques are required to properly tighten screw flanges. If there is a ques-tion regarding the adequacy of the field tightening means,a trial assembly using greaseon the threads, should be made prior to making the final assembly. Because of the diffi-culty in tightening large flanges at the job sites, sizes larger than 16" should not beattempted in the field.

3. The flange should never be final assembled on the pipe without the use of a lubricant orsealant on the threads.

4. Prior to making the final assembly of the flange on the pipe, the threaded portion of theflange and the pipe must be cleaned of all foreign material such as dirt, sand or grit. A suitable solvent should be used to remove any grease or oil remaining on the threads.

5. A two part 100% solids epoxy thread sealant should be applied to the threaded portion ofthe pipe and flange using the sealant manufacturer's recommended procedure. If flangedpipe will be in seawater, it is recommended that the exposed threads be coated with Induron PE-54 epoxy or wrapped with Denso tape which is available from:

Denso North America, Inc.Houston, Texas281-821-3355

6. The flange should be tightened until the face of the flange is at least flush with the facedend of the pipe. Normally the flange can be screwed on the pipe by hand up to approxi-mately the last three threads. Tightening the remaining threads creates the seal betweenthe pipe and the flange threads. If the face of the flange is not at least flush with the endof the pipe, a proper seal between the threads will not be made. If the pipe protrudesbeyond the face, it must be faced off smooth in a machine tool.

NOTE: Actual weights of fittings, sizes 54"-64" may exceed those shown.

Sizes 3"-48" conform to ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10. Sizes 54"-64" conform to ANSI/AWWA C153/A21.53.


On reducers of certain end combinations the number of bolt holes on one flange have an odd number in one quadrant and the opposite flange has an evennumber of holes in the same quadrant so that there are only four positions in which the reducers can be placed to properly assemble with the adjacent piping. Please take particular note that flange reducers have the vertical centerline marked on the edge of the flange. If assembled with the centerline in the vertical plane, the casting will properly assemble.

Eccentric reducers with the same dimensions and weights given for concentric reducers are available when specified on purchase order.

The FLANGE-TYTE Gasket is a superior ring gasket that can save money on installation andmaintenance costs. When properly assembled, the FLANGE-TYTE Gasket gives a completely leak-free flanged joint at a reasonable bolt torque, even at high internal operating pressures onflanged pipe, fittings, valves and hydrants.

A flange piping system can be installed with FLANGE-TYTE Gaskets and operated safely at highinternal pressures and high velocities and still handle the ever-present threat of high surgeswithout fear of gasket leaks. The FLANGE-TYTE Gasket is listed by Underwriters Laboratories.Flanged joints with FLANGE-TYTE Gaskets are approved by Factory Mutual.

Flanges must conform to ANSI/AWWA C115/A21.15 Flanged Ductile-Iron Pipe with ThreadedFlanges or ANSI/AWWA C110/A21.10 Ductile-Iron and Gray-Iron Fittings, 3" through 48", For Water.

Flanged joints sealed with FLANGE-TYTE Gaskets are rated by U.S. Pipe for 350 psi working pres-sure for the 4" through 24" sizes, 250 psi for the 36" through 48" sizes and 150 psi for the 54"through 64" sizes, based on the performance requirements of ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11 Rubber-Gasket Joints for Ductile Iron Pressure Pipe and Fittings. These FLANGE-TYTE Gaskets qualify asa “specially designed” gasket in accordance with ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11 which recognizes350 psi rating for 24" and smaller sizes. 30" and 36" gaskets are rated for 350 psi as amanufacturer’s standard.

Factory Mutual and Underwriters Laboratories rate the 4" through 12" size range for 250 psi.

FLANGE-TYTE Gaskets are 1/8" thick and are available in SBR, EPDM, nitrile, fluorocarbon orneoprene. The gaskets meet the material requirements of ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11.

NOTE: The flanges used in the above testsconform to the dimensional requirements ofANSI/ASME B16.1 Class 125 Flanges as well asthe above referenced flange standards

Torque Values are in ft-lb.

These torque values are appropriate for usewith FLANGE TYTE® Gaskets. For correcttorque values on other gaskets, consult the gasket supplier.

The FLANGE-TYTE® Gasket for flanged pipe and fittings should be assembled using the samegeneral procedures and practices as for plain ring type flange gaskets. As with all flangeassemblies, the faces of the flanges must be free of sand, grit, grease or other foreign matter.

Horizontal LinesFor larger diameters, it may be necessary to glue the FLANGE-TYTE® Gasket to the face of one ofthe flanges prior to aligning the flanges. For smaller diameter joints the gaskets can be droppedinto the joint as it is being assembled. Align the flanges and insert several bolts in the lower halfof the flanges. Drop the FLANGE-TYTE Gasket between the two flanges so that the gasket restson the lower bolts. Insert the remaining bolts and follow the tightening procedure below.

Vertical LinesCenter the FLANGE-TYTE® Gasket on the lower flange before assembling the joint. The gasket canalso be glued to the face of the flange to keep the gasket from dislodging during the assembly.

Bolt Tightening ProcedureAfter alignment has been completed, insert the bolts and hand tighten the nuts. Keep the gapbetween the flanges approximately uniform while tightening. Tighten the bolts to the requiredtorque in several steps, alternating from one side to the other.

NOTE: If specifiers and users believe that corrosive soils will be encountered where ourproducts are to be installed, please refer toANSI/AWWA C105/A21.5, PolyethyleneEncasement for Ductile Iron Pipe Systems, for proper external protection procedures.

NOTE: The largest opening establishes thebasic size of a reducing fitting. Thelargest opening is named first, except forbullhead tees which are reducing on bothruns and for double branch elbows whereboth branches are reducing, the outlet is the largest opening and namedlast in both cases.

In designating the openings of reducingfittings they should be read in the orderindicated by the sequence of the letters a,b, c and d. In designating the outlets ofside outlet reducing fittings the side outletis named last and in the case of the crosswhich is not shown the side outlet is designated by the letter e. Fittings of theconfigurations shown on this page that arenot covered on pages 8 through 25 may befurnished on special order. Consult yournearest U.S. Pipe representative.

The illustrations in the “SPECIAL” columns on this page indicate typical fittings that are often required with a combination of bell, plainend, and flange outlets. The laying dimensions of these fittings are not covered by any standard and they are therefore usually named“SPECIAL” inasmuch as they are made to order to suit certain conditions in piping installations.

To the right of each “SPECIAL” fitting is shown a combination of Standard fittings that can be used to obtain the same outlet effects asthe Specials. The laying dimensions may not be interchangeable since the dimensions of the Standard fittings are fixed whereas theSpecial can be made to a variety of desired lengths.

The use of Standard fittings wherever possible is always recommended as the most economical and such fittings can usually be shippedout of stock. In sending inquiries for fittings of dimensions deviating from the Standard, state specifically the type of outlets wanted,reading, sizes, etc., as shown on this page, and give exact dimension from the center line to outlet.
