Low cost. Small dimensions and low weight mean less material and cost of manufacture what results in reduced prices.
Small size. Aboard ships, offshore rigs and -installations, VCF-joints will offer ease of installation and operation.
Low maintenance. The monitoring of leakage from VCF-joints (the US-EPA Clean Air Act) may be reduced from annually to once every 4 year, what means reduced cost of surveillance and maintenance.
Low risk. Leakage from conventional gasketed pipe joints has been and will continue to be the cause of accidents and damage to the environment. The VCF-System does offer a significant step towards safe operation, - not only onshore, but also off-shore and at sea.
Reduced corrosion. Neither the flange faces nor the bolts are exposed to internal media or external environment. A static mode and full metal-to-metal contact between flange faces eliminate interface corrosion.
No cumbersome seal rings. Simple assembly and removal of equipment. Replacement of valves and pumps is simplified as such will slide in place.
Inventory reduction. The number of joint sizes may be significanly reduced. Further, only one length of bolt per diameter belongs to the VCF-System.
Process efficiency. Thanks to the use of VCF-joints many industries may raise the operating temperatures and pressures to improve efficiency and profit at the same time reduce maintenance and low down-time for repair of leaking flanged joints.

All components carry the VERAX trade mark...

Each flange carries the VERAX trade mark and a number to identify it. Any information is documented on a CD-ROM included in the delivery. Each component and any document within the VERAX Compact Flange System are marked accordingly.
