GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

The 500A Loose Flanged Taper provides a robust and practical solution for connecting pipelines or equipment where a transition between different diameters is required. Manufactured from high-strength ductile iron EN-GJS-500-7, it combines excellent mechanical performance, durability and installation flexibility, making it ideal for demanding water infrastructure applications.

One of its main advantages is the loose flange design.

The flanges can be rotated during installation, allowing the bolt holes to be easily aligned with the mating flanges. This considerably simplifies assembly, particularly in pump stations, valve chambers, existing pipeline connections and installations where space or flange orientation may be restrictive.

By allowing easier flange alignment, the loose flange system helps reduce installation time, avoid unnecessary forcing or repositioning of the fitting and minimize installation stress on the connected pipeline or equipment. It also makes future maintenance and replacement operations more convenient.

The tapered body provides a smooth transition between different pipeline diameters, making the fitting especially suitable for connecting pipes, valves, pumps and other network components.

Available in a range from ND40 up to ND600, the fitting is designed according to EN 545, with flange end connections according to EN 1092-2 PN10/PN16. A 250-micron epoxy coating provides reliable corrosion protection and supports long-term service life, while WRAS certification makes the product suitable for drinking water applications.

Designed for working pressures up to PN16 / 16 bar, with pressure ratings of 1.0 MPa and 1.6 MPa and an operating temperature range from -10°C to +90°C, the 500A Loose Flanged Taper is suitable for a wide variety of applications, including drinking water networks, bulk water storage, process water systems, pump stations, sewage water networks and irrigation projects.

The combination of easy flange alignment, reduced installation time, integrated handling assistance, strong ductile iron construction and reliable corrosion protection makes the 500A Loose Flanged Taper an efficient and versatile solution for modern water networks.
