Long Welding Neck Flanges are a special type of welding neck flange with an extended neck. The long tapered hub is designed to transfer stress gradually from the flange to the pipe or vessel, making it ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. These flanges are commonly used in pressure vessels, process equipment, and critical pipeline systems.
