The Raised Face (RF) type is the most applied flange face, and is easily to identify. It is referred to as a raised face because the gasket surfaces are raised above the bolting circle face.
Specifications covering the manufacture and dimensions of flanges:
ASTM SPECIFICATIONS
ASTM specifications regulate approved raw materials for which flanges can be made and specifications .
For stainless flanges are:
ASTM A.182 – Forged or Rolled Alloy Steel Pipe Flanges & Fittings for high temperature service.
ANSI AND MSS SPECIFICATIONS
The standards govern the dimensions and tolerances to which fitting are manufactured:
| ANSI B. 16.5 | Steel Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings (½ inch to 24 inch nominal diameter) |
| MSS SP.6 | Flange Facings |
