The ANSI and ASME terms are most common in metal industries. But many people still don’t know the exact difference between ANSI and ASME. They thought that both ASME & ANSI Flanges are the same and there is no difference between them. But that’s not right. In this article, we clearly understand the difference between ANSI and ASME Flanges. 

ANSI and ASME Flanges are the standard flanges designed with specific rules and conditions stated by ASME and ANSI standards. We will see each in detail and then discussed the main difference between them 

ANSI Flanges

ANSI Flange is abbreviations of the American National Standards Institute, a private and non-profit organization focusing to make uniformity in voluntary standards used in engineering disciplines. From ANSI’s mission and vision, we can clearly see the organization working for national as well as global industrial standards. The ANSI is more focus on products, systems, services, and resources of the United States. ANSI founded on 14th May 1918 by corporations, government agencies, organizations, and academic fields. 

ASME Flanges

ASME Flange is abbreviations of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, a non-profit and private organization created for bringing uniformity in voluntary standards used in engineering and industrial disciplines. The ASME is mainly focused on setting codes and standards for mechanical devices. They founded in 1880, after the numerous steam boiler and pressure vessel explosion in various parts of the world.

Difference between ANSI and ASME Flanges

• ANSI Flanges are manufactured based on standards developed by organizations and ASME Flanges are based on codes and standards for mechanical devices. 
• The ANSI Flanges are designed based on approx. 9500 standards whereas ASME Flanges manufactured on 600 codes and standards for different mechanical devices.
• ANSI Flanges are work to strengthening the position of U.S. Market in the global market, as long as ASME Flanges works to find solutions to real-time mechanical engineering problems.
