Ring Type Joint

A Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Flange is a specialized flange designed with a metallic ring groove that holds a precise metal ring gasket to create a high-integrity, leak-proof seal. This design is ideal for high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments where conventional gasket materials may fail.

Manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy materials, RTJ flanges provide exceptional mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. The metal-to-metal sealing mechanism ensures tight sealing under extreme conditions, making them the preferred choice in critical applications such as oil & gas, petrochemical, and refining industries.

Available in various pressure classes including Class 150, 300, 600, and higher, RTJ flanges conform to standards like ASME B16.5 and MSS-SP-44. Their precise machining and groove dimensions ensure reliable and repeatable sealing performance in demanding pipeline systems.

Key Features

Our Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Flanges are designed for high-pressure, high-temperature sealing in critical piping systems. Engineered for metal-to-metal sealing, they ensure exceptional leak-tight performance under extreme conditions.

Metal-to-Metal Seal

RTJ flanges utilize a precisely machined metal ring groove and a corresponding metal gasket to create a reliable, leak-proof seal under high pressure and temperature.

High-Pressure & Temperature Resistance

Forged construction and precision machining make RTJ flanges suitable for extreme pressure and temperature environments, common in oil & gas and petrochemical industries.

Corrosion & Fatigue Resistance

Available in carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steels, RTJ flanges offer excellent corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments.

Standards Compliance

Manufactured according to ASME B16.5, API 6A, MSS-SP-44, and ASTM standards, ensuring dimensional accuracy and global compatibility.

Precision Machining

The ring groove and flange face are precision machined to ensure perfect gasket fitment and repeatable sealing performance.

Critical Industrial Applications

Ideal for oil & gas, refining, power generation, offshore platforms, and other high-pressure, high-temperature services.
