KF Vacuum Flange KF1016FBWL
KF vacuum flanges, also called NW or QF, are quick-connect flanges for low-to-medium vacuum. K stands for German Kleinflansch, meaning small flange. Designed for rapid connection/disassembly, they suit laboratories and industry requiring frequent configuration changes or cleaning. 1. Flanges: generally two mating KF parts. 2. Seal: an annular rubber seal or O-ring maintains sealing between flanges. 3. Clamp: secures flanges and compresses the seal, generally using one or several bolts/nuts for quick tightening/release. 4. Centering ring: some connections include one to position the seal correctly. Simple, relatively inexpensive KF systems are practical in research and industry, particularly maintenance-/cost-sensitive settings, joining pipes, pumps, chambers, and other vacuum equipment. CF (Conflat Flange) generally serves higher vacuum, up to 10^-12 mbar. Static metal sealing withstands higher temperatures and high-temperature bakeout. CF uses bolts/nuts, while KF quick clamps make connection/removal more convenient. Overall, KF offers simple, economical quick connections for general vacuum; CF is more common for high vacuum or high-temperature operation. Selection considers vacuum, temperature, and disassembly frequency.

CF Vacuum Flange CF16 Optical Cells Fiberock
Flange Outer Diameter: 34.00 mm Flange Thickness: 7.30 mm Bolt Circle Diameter: 27.00 mm
CF, or Conflat Flange, is a high-vacuum connection using static metal seals and capable of high-temperature bakeout2. Pressure ranges from a minimum <10-12 hPa to ambient. Nominal diameters include 16, 40, 63, 100, 160, 200, 2502. Applicable vacuum reaches 10^-12 mbar2. Seal materials are generally Viton, PTFE, or oxygen-free copper; flanges generally use 304 or 316 stainless steel. Fixed flanges are one-piece. Loose/rotatable flanges comprise a knife edge compressing copper gaskets and a bolt-retaining section. Through-holes require bolts and nuts; threaded holes accept bolts directly. Main materials are SUS304 or SUS304L because SUS304 outgasses little and is readily machined/welded. Installation is demanding. Copper gaskets deform under compression, so tighten bolts evenly. Uneven forces lift diagonally opposite flange areas and cause leakage. Approximate torques: M4: 20kgf·cm; M6: 70kgf·cm; M8: 100kgf·cm. Genderless CF flanges and copper gaskets are all metal and withstand bakeout above 250℃. Disadvantages are high cost and nonreusable copper gaskets. CF series: readily recognizable seals mainly serve ultrahigh vacuum, using copper-gasket metal sealing. After one use, gasket sealing deteriorates substantially; high-vacuum systems require gasket replacement after every disassembly. Standard sizes such as CF35 and matching standard copper gaskets are available.
