What Are Flanged-Only Tank Heads?
Unlike flanged and dished heads, flanged-only tank heads are formed with a straight flange but without a dished crown. This simpler geometry makes them well suited for tanks and fabricated equipment that do not operate under pressure while still providing a consistent edge for welding and assembly. Their versatility allows them to be incorporated into a wide range of industrial products where ease of fabrication and dimensional accuracy are important.
