Types of Lap Joint Stub End
Type A
Type A stub ends are used for standard lap joint flanges. The lap thickness at the stub end is greater than or equal to the nominal thickness of the pipe wall. In addition, Type A has an outside corner radius to accept lap flanges. The inside corners are square. The lap usually has a machined serrated face.
Type B
Type B short ends are used as lap joint flanges for standard slip on flanges. The lap thickness of these short ends is greater than or equal to the nominal thickness of the pipe wall. In addition, the outside corner radius of Type B is small enough to accommodate a slip-on flange that can be used as a backup flange. The inside corners are square. The lap usually has a machined serrated face.
Type C
Type C stumps are available for standard lap joint flanges and slip-on flanges. It is flared with a rounded edge at the lap ID. If necessary, the radius can be squared. The lap thickness is 75% of the pipe wall. type C pipe is short enough to accommodate any spare flanges. type C laps are smooth and do not require machining.
You can view the exact specifications on our [Stub End Type A] product detail page.

Advantages of Stub Ends
- Reduce the total cost of flanged joints for piping systems in high material grades.
- Speed up the installation process, as the lap joint flange can be rotated to facilitate the alignment of the bolt holes.
Inspection of Carbon Steel Pipe Fittings
Check the marking. Such as name, size, schedule, grade, standard and Heat No.
Measure the dimensions. Such as outside diameter, thickness, height or length.
Ends of Short Type Stub End
- Beveled Ends
- Squared Ends
- Flanged Ends
- Grooved Ends

Drawing & Specification for Lap Joint Stub End

Lap Joint Stub End Drawing
- When the short type is used on the large flanges with PN 50 and PN 110(300 and 600LB)and on flanges
with PN 150(900LB)and above,or the long type is used on the larger flange with PN260 and PN420(1500 and 2500LB),the length of the cylinder may be added to be added to be feasible the welding,the adding length shall be negotiated by manufacturer and purchaser. - The thickness of joint shall be added if the TG and MFM contact surface of flange are used, and the adding thickness shall increase (not be included in)the base length F.
- The radius of fillet R(type A)shall conform to the ones of loose flanges according to GB/T 9118.1~9118.2 or ASME B16.5.The radius of fillet R(type B)is only applied for the standards of MSS SP-43 with short length F.
- The lap joint diameter G shall conform to the standard machined face indicated in ASME B16.5,and the back of joint shall be machined to conform to the surface of installation.When RJ used,the size K specified in ASME B 16.5 Shall apply.
- The minimum lap joint thickness t shall not be less than the nominal pipe wall thickness.
