Dimensional tolerances for AWWA pipe flanges
Listed below are the Dimensional Tolerances to which flanges are manufactured. These tolerances are a part of ANSI B16.5 and AWWA C207-01 Sec. 4.2 except where noted otherwise. The limits given are maximum. Rigid inspection procedure assures the maintenance of high standards of accuracy in regular day to day production.
