Abstract: A flanged member (1), intended to be included as a component in a flanged joint, for installation in a pressure equipment device, and having a first flanged end (3) having a first end surface (10) intended to be assembled together with another end surface (4) of a flanged end (11) on another, second flanged member (2) constituting a second component in the flanged joint. The first end surface is slightly concave in the radial direction over at least a part of the extension thereof in the radial direction.
Abstract: A flanged member for a pipe system, and a method of manufacturing same. The flanged member has a radially projecting flange part and a pipe part. The flange part has a front end surface connects to another flange part, and a radially planar rear end surface facing the pipe part which delimits the rear end of the flange part against the pipe part, together with a radially inward extension of the rear end surface. The pipe part has a free end, adapted to be welded into the pipe system. Before final machining of the front surface of the flange part, the pipe part has an axial length such that its mass is at least 35% of the mass of the flange part so that upon welding of the free end of the pipe part, there is substantially no distortion of the rear surface of the flange part.
