Ukuxhumana kwe-Flangewukulungisa amapayipi amabili, izifakelo zamapayipi noma izinto zokusebenza ngokulandelana ai-flangeplate, kanyei-flangei-pad yengezwa phakathi kwama-flange amabili, aboshwe kanye nama-bolts ukuqedela uxhumano.Ezinye izinsimbi zamapayipi nezinto zokusebenza zinazoama-flange, nazoi-flangeukuxhumana.I-Flangeukuxhumeka kuyindlela ebalulekile yokuxhumana ekwakhiweni kwepayipi.I-Flangeukuxhumana kulula ukuyisebenzisa futhi kungamelana nokucindezela okukhulu.I-Flangeukuxhumana kusetshenziswa kabanzi kumapayipi ezimboni.Ekhaya, ububanzi bepayipi buncane, futhi ingcindezi ephansi, akukho uxhumano lwe-flange olubonakalayo.Uma usendlini yokubhayela noma indawo yokukhiqiza, zikhonai-flangedamapayipi nemishini yonke indawo.
Ngokusho kwei-flange yokuxhumanaizinhlobo zokuxhuma zingahlukaniswa zibe:ipuleti flat welding flange, eneflange yokushisela intamo eyisicaba, i-butt welding neck flange, i-socket welding flange, i-flange enentambo, ikhava ye-flange, ene-neck butt welding ring flange, indandatho ye-welding eyisicaba iyakhululeka, i-ring groove surface flange, ikhava ye-flange, ububanzi obukhulu i-flange yepuleti, i-flange enkulu eyimpumputhe enobubanzi obuphakeme, i-flange yentamo yokushisela, amagama ayisishiyagalombili ayakhala,njll.
