Non-Code Flanged & Dished Tank Heads

A cost-effective head design for atmospheric tanks and industrial applications where ASME code compliance isn't required.

Not every tank or vessel is built to ASME pressure vessel standards. Commercial Metal Forming manufactures non-code flanged and dished tank heads for storage tanks, process equipment, and other industrial applications where pressure ratings are not required. Available in a wide range of diameters, thicknesses, and materials, these heads provide a dependable, economical solution for OEMs, fabricators, and manufacturers.

What Are Non-Code Flanged & Dished Tank Heads?

Non-code flanged and dished tank heads are designed for tanks and vessels that operate without the pressure requirements governed by the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Featuring the same familiar flanged edge and dished profile as their ASME counterparts, these heads provide an efficient, practical solution for atmospheric storage and other non-pressure applications. Because they are not manufactured to ASME code requirements, they often offer a more economical option while still delivering the quality and dimensional consistency needed for industrial fabrication.

Key Attributes:

  • Designed for non-pressure vessel applications
  • Cost-effective alternative to ASME code heads
  • Familiar flanged and dished geometry for easy fabrication
  • Available in standard and custom sizes

Common Applications

  • Atmospheric storage tanks
  • Liquid storage systems
  • Water storage tanks
  • Agricultural equipment
  • Industrial process tanks
  • OEM fabricated equipment
  • General industrial manufacturing

Frequently asked questions

What is a non-code flanged and dished tank head?

A non-code flanged and dished tank head is designed for tanks and vessels that are not required to meet ASME pressure vessel code standards. It provides the same general head geometry used in many industrial applications but is intended for non-pressure service.

What materials are available?

Commercial Metal Forming manufactures non-code flanged and dished heads in carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other ferrous and non-ferrous metals depending on project requirements.

What sizes can you manufacture?

Non-code flanged and dished tank heads are available in diameters from 6 inches to 268 inches with material thicknesses ranging from 14 gauge to 1½ inches.

How do non-code heads differ from ASME heads?

Non-code heads are intended for applications where ASME pressure vessel compliance is not required. They provide a practical, cost-effective solution for atmospheric tanks and other non-pressure industrial equipment.
