A flange adapter is a type of fitting used to connect two different types of components together, typically with different flange types or connection methods. It acts as a bridge between two different flange types or connection methods and allows them to be joined together securely. The flanged end is designed to mate with the flange on one component, while the non-flanged end is designed to be welded or threaded.

Attributes:
• Create a tight, leak-proof seal between the two components being connected.
• Versatile and used to connect different types of components with different flange types or connection methods.
• Easy to install and require minimal tools and easily removed and replaced if necessary.

Applications:
Flange adapters are widely used in connecting piping systems, valves, and equipment, such as pumps and compressors, turbines, and Generators.
