EDGE FINISHING
TYPES OF EDGE FINISHES

Specifications summary
Drawing legend
Tolerances
- Heads available in stock are flat trimmed (TF1).
For heads with a different edge, please specify this to the sales department when ordering. - The drawings in the table are not to scale and are to be considered for illustrative purposes only.
- The TF2 edge is shown in its standard version; variations can also be made to meet specific requirements.
Outside diameter
Straight flange height
Inside diameter
Total outside height = H+h+s
Thickness
Inside height without straight flange
Crown radius
Blank diameter for head production
Knuckle radius
Head capacity in liters
Regarding pressed heads, the tolerances applied are those of the regulations in force (specifically the AFRON NFE 81-100/1997 standard).
For flanged heads, they are as follows:
On the outside diameter:
< Ø 2000 = ± 2 ‰ · Ø
> Ø 2000 = ± 3 ‰ · Ø
Out-of-roundness (maximum difference between minimum and maximum diameter)
± 3 ‰ · Ø
Total height (for untrimmed heads)
– 0 +25 mm
Plates
Dimensional and shape tolerances of the plates to be taken as a reference, unless otherwise contractually agreed, are in accordance with UNI EN 10025 and UNI EN 10051 standards.
It is nevertheless possible to request tighter tolerances at the time of ordering, the feasibility of which will be evaluated.
