AWWA (American Water Works Association) Standard Steel-Hub Flanges are specifically designed for use in waterworks applications. These flanges are robust, durable, and engineered to handle pressures ranging from 86 to 275 PSI, making them ideal for low- to medium-pressure water systems. They are commonly used for pipe connections in municipal water supply, wastewater treatment, and irrigation systems.
