A Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Flange is a specialized component featuring a metallic ring groove designed to hold a precise metal ring gasket. This creates a superior metal-to-metal sealing mechanism, resulting in a high-integrity, leak-proof seal. It is engineered for high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments where standard gaskets would fail. Constructed from high-grade carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy materials, RTJ flanges offer exceptional mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring tight sealing under extreme conditions. They are the preferred choice for critical applications in the oil & gas, petrochemical, and refining industries. Adhering to standards like ASME B16.5 and available in various pressure classes (Class 150, 300, 600+), their precise machining guarantees reliable and repeatable sealing performance.
