150A JIS 10K flange: dimensions, bolt circle and drilling (JIS B 2220)

The 150A JIS 10K flange to JIS B 2220 is 280 mm (11.02 in) across, with 8 holes of 23 mm (0.91 in) on a 240 mm (9.45 in) bolt circle, for M20 bolts; the pipe is 165.2 mm (6.5 in) outside. The holes straddle the centre lines, the first one 22.5° off, and the chord between neighbouring holes, which is the divider setting for stepping the drilling out, is 91.8 mm (3.62 in).

The thickness of the steel flange in JIS B 2220; cast iron flanges are thicker. The bolts are metric, M20, and their length depends on the gasket and the type of flange.

Hole coordinates

From the centre of the flange, in mm, with the first hole 22.5° off the horizontal axis and the others counter-clockwise, as the standards lay the drilling out.

Bolt tightening order

1 – 5 – 3 – 7 → 2 – 6 – 4 – 8

The cross pattern of ASME PCC-1, with the holes numbered as in the table above, so that the gasket is pulled down evenly. Go round in at least three passes, raising the torque each time (about 30 %, 60 % and 100 %), then go round in order until no nut turns. The torque itself depends on the bolt, the gasket and the lubricant: it comes from the gasket or bolt supplier.

Questions

How many bolts does a 150A JIS 10K flange have?

8, of M20, through holes of 23 mm (0.91 in) on a 240 mm (9.45 in) bolt circle.

What is the bolt circle of a 150A JIS 10K flange?

240 mm (9.45 in). The holes are 45° apart, and the first one sits 22.5° off the centre line, so that two flanges mate in any symmetric position. The chord between neighbouring holes is 91.8 mm (3.62 in).

Can a 150A JIS 10K flange be cut from plate?

As a plate flange, for low pressure: ducts, tanks, water lines. The outline and the drilling above are what the flange calculator draws, with the 1:1 template and the DXF for plasma or laser. For pressure service, the flange takes the material, thickness and facing that JIS B 2220 sets for its class.

In what order are the bolts of a 150A JIS 10K flange tightened?

In a cross pattern, with the holes numbered round the flange: 1, 5, 3, 7, 2, 6, 4, 8. In at least three passes, raising the torque each time, and then round in order until no nut turns.
