Techlok - Design Principles
Sound enabled page

• Conventional flange design has not changed for over 100 years

• Need for greater versatility - handling and bolting - for use where space is restricted

• Quicker make-up and release times

• Strength and integrity of a welded joint coupled with the versatility of a mechanical joint

• The clamp connector was developed as the high pressure, low weight, leak-free alternative to the ANSI flange

• Reuseable metal to metal sealring

• Assured joint integrity for every application
