What are ASME Flanged & Dished Tank Heads?
ASME flanged and dished tank heads are characterized by two defining features: a dished crown that helps distribute internal pressure and a flanged outer edge that provides a consistent weld connection to the vessel shell.
This combination has made them one of the most common head styles used in ASME pressure vessel fabrication. Their versatile geometry supports a wide range of vessel sizes and operating conditions, making them a practical choice for many industrial applications.
