Bleed Ring Flange

Drip Ring Flange, Vent Ring Flange Exporter

Bleed rings, also known as drip rings or vent rings, are circular plates with radial tapped holes, typically installed between flanges to allow for venting, draining, or bleeding of pipeline fluids. These rings are commonly used in conjunction with valves, pressure gauges, or other instrumentation to enhance system safety and facilitate maintenance. Made from various materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloys, bleed rings are suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. They are essential in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, power generation, and more.

A drip ring flange is used to prevent fluid leakage by collecting and directing drips away from the pipeline. It is often used in applications where controlled drainage is essential.

A vent ring flange is used to release trapped gases or pressure from the pipeline system safely, ensuring operational safety and preventing overpressure situations.

These flanges are widely used in industries like oil and gas, petrochemicals, power generation, water treatment, and chemical processing.
