Please suggest me what will be minimum nozzle neck thickness for 2" LWN flange 600#?
As per PvElite for 2" 600# LWN flange minimum thickness is 4.8 but as per table UG-45(2010 ED) minimum thickness for 2" is 3.4mm, please suggest me which is right, can I go with 3.4mm.

Dear elite user of pvelite, can you ask your pvelite which rules of the Code are being applied in your pvelite design?

It is not as low, by heart I would say 1/2 inch or more, but please read ASME B 16.5 Ed.2003
