V-CLAMPS

“V” Profile Clamps are utilised in a wide variety of industries and environments and are used to draw together and seal two circular flanges. The diversity of industries where V-Clamps are used is almost endless from Diesel Engines, Aerospace, Food Processing, Filter, Petrochemical, Exhaust and Catalysts, Turbo Charger, Telecommunication in fact anywhere where two vessels or pipes need connecting V-Clamps can be the economical answer.

In conjunction with the appropriate flanges and gaskets they ensure a highly reliable joint and result in a much, easier to fit and maintain unit and use much less space than conventional bolted flanges. They can function reliably and safely under conditions involving stress, fluctuating temperature, pressure and corrosive environments.

The Neophix range is comprehensive, both in terms of “V” profile and diameters that can be manufactured. There is a variety of fastening mechanisms available from the standard T-Bolt to latch and over centre quick release mechanisms which suit frequent assembly and disassembly of units. They can be manufactured in stainless steel, Inconel, carbon steel or aluminised steel and a range of finishes are available.

In addition to our existing ranges, Neophix are equipped to produce special purpose Profile Clamps to meet customers’ individual requirements. Our Design Engineers have many years experience in the industry and are always available to give customers advice on the design of clamps for individual applications.

FLANGES

To complement the V-Clamps which we manufacture we also offer machined flanges and seals as part of a kit.

Our flanges can be machined to work with flat gaskets, O-Ring gaskets or supplied without a gasket. The gaskets are available in Graphite, NBR, Viton, Silicone, EPDM, PTFE & Chloroprene. The flanges themselves can be machined in AISI304 & AISI316 stainless steels.

As standard we produce flanges to suit 2”,2.5”,3”,3.5” & 4” tube OD’s in many of our V-Profiles. We can however produce flanges to suit bespoke requirements.

PRESSURE RATINGS

The pressure rating of a retainer profile can be influenced by factors such as flange style, diameter, atmospheric conditions, clamp fastener mechanism and the material construction. The below graphs serve as a guide to the capabilities of our most popular profiles, for accurate data the specific clamp required must be tested in conditions that replicate the application. For further information on product data and our testing facilities please contact a member of our technical team.
