Component Specifications

Definition
A mounting plate or flange is a structural component designed to provide a stable, flat surface for attaching end connection fittings to machinery or equipment. It ensures precise alignment, distributes mechanical loads evenly, and facilitates secure connections for pipes, hoses, or other fluid transfer systems. Typically manufactured with high precision, it includes bolt holes, alignment features, and sometimes sealing surfaces to maintain system integrity under operational stresses.
Working Principle
The mounting plate/flange operates by providing a rigid interface between end connection fittings and the machine structure. It uses bolt patterns and alignment pins to ensure proper positioning, while its flat surface prevents misalignment and vibration. Load distribution is achieved through its material thickness and design, reducing stress concentrations at connection points.
Materials
Common materials include carbon steel (e.g., ASTM A36), stainless steel (e.g., 304/316), aluminum alloys (e.g., 6061-T6), or engineered plastics (e.g., polyamide) for corrosion resistance or lightweight applications. Material selection depends on factors like load capacity, environmental conditions, and compatibility with connected systems.
Technical Parameters
  • Thickness 5-20 mm
  • Load Capacity Up to 5000 N
  • Surface Finish Ra 3.2 μm or better
  • Bolt Hole Pattern Standardized (e.g., 4-12 holes)
