The petrochemical industry uses pipe fittings for a wide range of applications from, oil refineries to pilot plants. Products include flanges for pipelines, fluid systems and pneumatic areas, custom designed to very high specifications.

Skilfully engineered components made from high-quality alloys are a key area of plant systems. It is essential that pipe flanges and other fittings are up to the demanding specifications of the petrochemical industry, and so resistant alloys are employed which resist corrosion, pitting and distortion and create tight seals under pressure.

Chemical processes employing pipe flanges are batch processing, continuous processing, heat and mass transfer, fluid flow and mixing and separation procedures.  Specific fittings are manufactured for fluid-handling applications, emissions control, heat transfer apparatus and cooling equipment.

Due to the highly specific and corrosive nature of the industry, pipe flanges are made in a range of alloys including titanium and super duplex. Things to look for in petrochemical pipe flanges are: strength, resistance to pitting and cracking, resistance to chemical agents, resistance to atmospheric conditions; weldability and low maintenance. The stringent conditions of the petrochemical industry means products must be rigorously tested and comply with British Industry and HSE standards. This is for the safety of both employees and the public.

We at ChemiPetro produce high-quality pipe flanges, fittings and fasteners for the entire petrochemical industry. Our products are used by researchers in pilot plants, laboratories and other areas to research and develop new chemicals, and to enable manufacturers to produce products in bulk for economy and reliable distribution.
