Rail Industry Component:
Strato Inc.: Split Flanges

Strato's split flanges make it easier to replace broken flanges in the field, the company says. The flanges are also used when bulkhead holes are not large enough to accommodate a flange. Split flanges may be applied after socket weld fittings have been installed and the pipe has been passed through smaller bulkhead holes.
