Approved Material for Metallic Flanges (IS 10124 Part 6)
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Material | Cast Iron |
| Grade | Minimum Grade FG 150 (IS 210) |
This ensures adequate strength and durability for the flanged tail pieces.
If you need flange dimensions or bolt sizes, refer to Table 1 in Clause 3.2.2 for detailed specs.
According to IS 10124 Part 6, the pressure classes on flanged tail pieces are indicated by:
Marking on the flange tail piece including:
Colour coding corresponding to the pressure class:
| Class of Fittings | Pressure (MPa) | Colour |
|---|---|---|
| Class 2 | 0.4 | Blue |
| Class 3 | 0.6 | Green |
| Class 4 | 0.8 | Brown |
| Class 5 | 1.0 | Yellow |
| Class 6 | 1.25 | Black |
Note: For 0.25 MPa class, flanged tail pieces are made from 0.4 MPa pipes, not 0.25 MPa pipes.
This system ensures easy identification of pressure ratings visually and by marking for safety and compliance.
