The Ring Type Joint Flange also known as RTJ flange is built for high-pressure and high-temperature environments. It uses a metal ring gasket to form a seal when the flange bolts are tightened. This seal happens as the ring is compressed into a grooved face, creating a tight, metal-to-metal connection. These flanges are most used in oil and gas, petrochemical, and offshore applications. Tesco Steel & Engineering is a trusted Ring Type Joint Flange Manufacturer known for supplying reliable flange ring joint solutions to clients across heavy-duty industries.
There are various flange joint types, but RTJ flanges are ideal for critical applications. The most common gasket designs are the R, RX, and BX types. The R type is available in oval and octagonal shapes, with the octagonal being more popular due to better sealing. The RX is suitable for pressure up to 5000 psi and handles vibration well. BX is used only with API 6BX flanges and can manage pressures up to 20,000 psi. These flanges are made from various materials like stainless steel, duplex, carbon steel, and nickel alloys, and they come in sizes ranging from ½" to 48". Each RTJ flange is marked with a ring number to match the correct gasket.
Ring joint flanges form a solid seal even when exposed to extreme pressure or temperature. They offer strong resistance against chemicals and vibrations. Because the ring gasket fits tightly in the flange groove ensuring no leaks. When bolts are properly torqued, the setup stays sealed. The difference between raised face and ring joint flanges is simple—raised face uses a flat gasket, while RTJ forms a tighter, metal seal. This makes RTJ flanges better for tough environments.
