A four--bolt split flange has a flange head that is clamped to a smooth face. The flange head uses a
preformed packing that is squeezed between the head and the face. The face and the end of flange head
must be free of nicks and scratches to seal properly. The packing must also be free of nicks and cuts, or the
connection will leak.
CAUTION
Replace or repair parts with nicks, cuts, or scratches. Failure to comply may result in
damage to equipment.
