Overview

Anchor Forgings, sometimes referred to as Anchor Flanges, are used for immobilizing high pressure pipe lines and restraining pipe movement where uncontrolled thrust load forces could damage equipment.

Anchor Forgings are custom designed to provide the most economical dimensions for each special application. Stress Calculations are provided as outlined in ASME Section VIII, Division 1, Appendix 2.

Our engineering team works closely with customers to ensure optimal design solutions that meet both performance requirements and cost objectives for critical pipeline restraint applications.
