    It was very useful. Only the part related to tightening the screws should be explained, how to tighten the screws and where to start and where to end.
    And it was also explained whether the flanges related to polyethylene pipes will be metal pipes.
    The type of application of flanges was also explained in more detail. And whether the percentage of carbon in the type of flange is relevant or not.
    Does the weather and the area where the flanges are used have an effect on the efficiency of the flange if the percentage of salt is high.
    It was also explained about the types of gaskets and according to the type of application, its duration and lifespan were determined.
