Forged Alloy Steel Weld Neck Flange from Germany
A forged flange made from alloy steel (not stainless) with a long tapered hub for welding to pipes, used in high-pressure oil and gas pipelines. It falls under HTS 7307.91.30.00 as it is not machined, tooled, or otherwise processed after forging, meeting the 'rough' flange criteria. These flanges provide strong, leak-proof connections in demanding industrial applications.
