EIA & IEC Waveguide Flanges

Waveguide flanges for mating RF components, with an EIA/IEC reference for WR/R sizes and regional flange designations. Match the complete interface, including aperture height, bolt pattern, sealing face and alignment features. Send the mating drawing, material, finish and quantity for a configuration review.

Dolph Microwave

EIA & IEC Waveguide Flanges

Dolph Microwave supplies waveguide flanges for joining compatible waveguide components at a defined mechanical interface. The EIA/IEC reference below relates WR and R waveguide designations to flange codes, including cover and grooved styles. Use it to identify an interface family, then confirm the dimensioned drawing for the mating pair.

A WR number identifies the waveguide size; it does not define the bolt pattern, alignment features, gasket groove or surface contact. For a replacement flange, send the full designation and a drawing or clear photograph of the mating face. For a new assembly, specify both ends before selecting associated seals or mounting hardware.

For a standard rectangular waveguide assembly, check the flange together with the component band and aperture height.

Before you order

What needs to match at the joint?

Aperture and height

Confirm the internal opening and whether the waveguide is full-height or reduced-height. The standard size name alone does not cover every custom interface.

Bolt pattern and mating face

Include the hole positions, flange outline and cover/grooved face. A clear drawing avoids relying on a partial flange name.

Material and seal

The product information lists Aluminum 6061-T6 and custom groove options. Specify the required material and surface finish on the drawing, and identify any gasket, alignment pins or other mating hardware needed at the joint.

The EIA and IEC flange size guide explains designation and fit checks. For a thin interface component, compare waveguide flange shims.

For the rest of your setup

Specify the gasket with the flange

If the joint requires a seal, choose the gasket material and profile around the actual mating face. Pressure-only sealing and combined RF/pressure sealing call for different choices.

Questions before ordering

Will any two WR75 flanges connect?

The WR designation describes the waveguide size. The mating flange code, bolt pattern, aperture height and face geometry still need to agree.

Can you quote a non-standard flange?

Send a dimensioned drawing with the material, surface finish, mating part and operating conditions. The custom interface can then be reviewed as a specific part.

Have a model or drawing?

Send the WR/R designation, full flange code, dimensioned mating drawing, material, finish and quantity. Include aperture height, bolt and alignment-pin details, seal requirements, and any pressure or temperature conditions. Identify whether the request is for loose flanges or an assembled waveguide part.
