Puddles Flanges in Meghalaya
A puddle flange is a specialized sealing device used to prevent water leakage where pipes pass through concrete structures such as walls, foundations, manholes, or tanks. It is essentially a ring or collar fixed around the outside of a pipe, embedded in concrete, and designed to act as a barrier against water ingress along the pipe’s surface.
Made from materials like mild steel, stainless steel, or durable polymers (e.g., HDPE, PVC, EPDM rubber), puddle flanges provide a watertight seal between the pipe and surrounding concrete. They are commonly used in water supply systems, drainage systems, sewage treatment plants, and underground construction works.
- Leak Prevention – Creates a watertight seal around the pipe where it passes through concrete or masonry structures.
- Durable Construction – Made from corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel, mild steel, HDPE, PVC, or EPDM rubber.
- Easy Installation – Simply fixed onto the pipe and embedded in the concrete during construction.
- Versatile Sizes – Available in different diameters to suit a wide range of pipe dimensions.
- High Strength – Withstands internal and external water pressure effectively.
- Maintenance-Free – Once installed, requires little to no maintenance.
- Versatile Applications – Used in water supply lines, drainage systems, sewage treatment plants, underground tanks, manholes, and basements.
- Chemical Resistance – Rubber and polymer puddle flanges offer resistance against chemicals in wastewater or ground conditions.
