When sourcing flanges, one of the first decisions is domestic vs. import. We offer both — and we’re upfront about the pros, trade-offs, and what’s right for your job.

Domestic Flanges:

Made in the USA means tight quality control, full traceability, and fast local support. Domestic flanges are typically manufactured to:

  • ASME / ANSI standards
  • Certified material specs (e.g. ASTM A105, A350 LF2, etc.)
  • Full mill test reports (MTRs)

Why choose domestic:

  • Project specs require U.S. origin
  • Critical service – high pressure, high temperature, hazardous media
  • Tighter tolerances or short lead times
  • Better control over QA and compliance

We work with trusted U.S. flange manufacturers to supply carbon steel, stainless, alloy, and specialty flanges with consistent quality and support.

Import Flanges

Import flanges offer a cost-effective alternative for non-critical applications or projects where origin isn’t a concern. We source from reliable mills overseas, mostly in:

  • India
  • Italy
  • South Korea
  • China (select vendors with strong quality assurance)

Why choose import:

  • Lower cost per unit — especially on larger quantities
  • Flexible options — good availability for standard sizes
  • Shorter lead times on some commodity flanges

All import flanges we sell meet applicable specs (e.g. ASME B16.5 or B16.47) and include test reports unless otherwise noted.

Our Approach

We don’t push one over the other — we ask the right questions:

  • What’s the application?
  • Do you need MTRs or specific origin certifications?
  • Is lead time or cost more important right now?

We then recommend the right flange — domestic or import — based on your real needs.
