ISO 7005-1:2011 establishes a base specification for pipe flanges suitable for general purpose and industrial applications including, but not limited to, chemical process industries, electric power generating industries, petroleum and natural gas industries. It places responsibility for the selection of a flange series with the purchaser.

It is applicable to flanges within facilities engaged in the processing or handling of a wide variety of fluids, including steam, pressurized water and chemical, petroleum, natural gas or related products.

ISO 7005-1:2011 is also applicable to packaged equipment piping, which interconnects individual pieces or stages of equipment within a packaged equipment assembly for use within facilities engaged in the processing or handling of a variety of fluids, including steam and chemical, petroleum, natural gas or related products.

ISO 7005-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 5, Ferrous metal pipes and metallic fittings, Subcommittee SC 10, Metallic flanges and their joints.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 7005-1:1992), which has been technically revised.
ISO 7005 consists of the following parts, under the general title Pipe flanges:
— Part 1: Steel flanges for industrial and general service piping systems
It also consists of the following parts, under the general title, Metallic flanges:
— Part 2: Cast iron flanges
— Part 3: Copper alloy and composite flanges

 

This part of ISO 7005 makes normative reference to a family of two distinct steel flange series, each of which has sectorial relevance in noteworthy global marketplaces. Each is widely used within these regional entities. Each of these individual flange series, taken separately, represents a very large installed flange population and as such, it is not an economically viable option to compel replacement with a single flange series.
The steel flange harmonization specified in the previous edition did not achieve the anticipated market acceptance. This can be attributed firstly to the fact that this part of ISO 7005 has not, prior to this revision, been updated and, secondly, that this part of ISO 7005 lacked normative requirements for many materials and their corresponding pressure/temperature ratings. In addition, dimensional compromises made during the drafting of the previous edition have not been acknowledged in important market sectors. While this part of ISO 7005 remained unchanged for many years, sectorial flange standards have kept pace and by doing so maintained market prominence. With this revision, normative reference requirements are added for the two most prominent sectorial flange series, each endowed with significant market presence.
The revision of this part of ISO 7005 is intended to more readily accommodate and expand regional and national standardization needs by providing ready access to a sectorial series whose requirements are contemporaneous with regional imperatives.
