02 Stainless Steel Dished Head
Stainless steel dished heads are curved end closures used for tanks, pressure vessels and industrial equipment. Available in different diameters, thicknesses and formed profiles, they can be manufactured according to project drawings, dimensions and fabrication requirements.
PRESSURE VESSEL HEAD TYPES
03 Stainless Steel Elliptical Head
Stainless steel elliptical heads, also known as ellipsoidal heads or elliptical dished ends, are curved end closures commonly used for pressure vessels, tanks and process equipment. They can be manufactured in different diameters, thicknesses and configurations according to vessel design, project drawings and fabrication requirements.
PRESSURE VESSEL HEAD TYPES
04 Stainless Steel Hemispherical Head
Stainless steel hemispherical heads are half-spherical formed heads used as end closures for pressure vessels, tanks and process equipment. Their deep, continuously curved profile provides a distinctive hemispherical geometry and can be manufactured in different diameters, thicknesses and configurations according to vessel design, drawings and project requirements.

Pressure Vessel Head Dimensions
DIMENSION GUIDE
Pressure vessel head dimensions vary depending on the selected head type and vessel design. When requesting a custom pressure vessel head, key dimensions such as diameter, thickness, overall height and straight flange should be specified according to the project drawing and application requirements.
*Dimensional parameters vary by head type. Not all dimensions shown apply to flat, dished, elliptical and hemispherical heads. Final dimensions should be confirmed according to the selected head profile, technical drawings and project requirements.
D — Diameter
The overall diameter of the pressure vessel head.
t — Thickness
The specified material thickness of the formed head.
H — Overall Head Height
The total depth or height of the head profile.
SF — Straight Flange
The straight section at the edge of the formed head.
CR — Crown Radius
The radius of the main curved section of the head profile.
KR — Knuckle Radius
The radius connecting the crown section to the straight flange.
