WOODCO USA defines "Product Quality" as conformance to specified requirements. Approved Vendors provide material, products, and services which conform to WOODCO USA and national and/or international standards. Receiving Inspection screens all incoming material before processing. Additional inspections during manufacturing and after final operations assure compliance with applicable standards. Buyers may request supplemental inspections required to meet special needs. WOODCO USA manufactures all products in compliance with applicable national and/or international standards. However, many standards, including API Specifications, allow options and do not define aspects of clearance. The following list provides a sampling of items of standardization adopted by WOODCO USA: Flange thickness tolerance allows stock for recutting ring grooves. Optional corrosion resistant ring grooves' inlay depth allows stock for recutting ring grooves. Steel chemistry facilitates later weld repair. Raised faces omitted on studded flanges facilitates interchangeability of tap end studs. Studded flange faces equipped with tap end (double end) studs. WOODCO USA design criteria assures nut and wrench clearances. 2.1 Flanges and Hubs (Loose Connectors) WOODCO USA manufactures API Spec 6A Flanges and other Loose Connectors in all sizes and pressure ratings; and in all the common configurations as follows: |
