Specification basis: The schedule below distinguishes industry geometry from order-specific requirements. Final dimensions, performance and price are defined in the approved quotation and drawing. Photographs identify the product family.
What is a torispherical tank head?
A torispherical tank head combines a spherical crown with a knuckle transition toward the cylindrical attachment edge. Crown radius, knuckle radius and straight flange define the profile and distinguish it from an elliptical or hemispherical head.
Key dimensions and installation fit
For the DIN 28011 reference profile, the crown radius equals the outside diameter and the knuckle radius is one tenth of that diameter. These geometric ratios do not establish pressure capacity; minimum wall, material and design conditions remain vessel-specific. Compare related configurations: elliptical tank head, shallow dished tank head.
How to specify the torispherical tank head
Specify the governing head design, crown and knuckle radii, shell diameter, corrosion allowance and minimum finished thickness. The knuckle is a controlled feature whose shape and thickness affect fit and design. A similar appearance does not make different torispherical profiles interchangeable.
State whether the vessel interface uses inside or outside diameter. Define crown shape, dish depth, straight flange, wall thickness and edge preparation independently. Vessel pressure, temperature, vacuum, corrosion allowance, forming thinning and openings affect the final design; shape dimensions alone do not give a working-pressure rating.

|---|---|
| Crown radius | Outside diameter, for the referenced profile |
| Knuckle radius | 0.10 × outside diameter, for the referenced profile |
| Straight flange | To ordered profile and vessel drawing |
| Diameter basis | State inside or outside diameter explicitly |

| Material | Exact grade and supplied condition to the vessel specification |
| Edge preparation | Bevel, root face and fit-up to the joint drawing |
| Inspection | Profile, ovality, minimum wall and agreed examination |
Sizes and dimensional requirements
Use the named standard for standardized interfaces and the controlled drawing for custom dimensions. Confirm units, diameter datums, minimum finished thickness and any mating-component requirements. A catalogue dimension is not a universal tolerance, capacity or pressure rating.
Dimensions and tolerance schedule
| Individually toleranced features | Limits and datum system on the approved drawing |
|---|---|
| General tolerances | Standard, edition and class apply only when specified |
| Formed-head acceptance | Profile, ovality and minimum finished wall to vessel specification |
Individually toleranced dimensions and functional requirements take precedence over a general tolerance note. Specify the governing standard and acceptance method in the order documents; a tolerance shown by another manufacturer does not establish JINYI manufacturing capability.
Materials, inspection and documentation
Inspect the interface diameter, profile, dish depth, straight flange and minimum finished wall thickness against the vessel drawing. Check openings and edge preparation separately. Specify material traceability, forming records and examination where required. Keep the design code and drawing revision with the ordered component.
State the exact material designation and supplied condition, the controlled drawing revision and the required inspection reports before ordering. Separate material certification from dimensional checks and functional or pressure testing. Agree the acceptance limits for the ordered component and identify any additional witnessing, marking or packing requirements. Use technical help to prepare the drawing, material and inspection questions for review. Use the custom manufacturing and OEM guidance to define the drawing, material and inspection scope.
Installation and handling guidance
Measure the profile and circumference using the inspection method stated in the order. Check the edge preparation and the shell joint before assembly. Any local thinning, forming marks or weld repairs are assessed against the agreed material and fabrication requirements.
Where the torispherical tank head is used
- Tank fabrication. Drawing-defined ends and covers matched to the shell interface.
- Vessel manufacture. Formed components selected through the complete vessel design.
- Equipment repairs. Replacement geometry, openings and edge details checked against the existing assembly.
How to order a torispherical tank head
Send the required configuration, material, quantity, destination and controlled drawing to JINYI. Identify changed dimensions, mating components, operating conditions and inspection scope. For a repeat order, include the previous approved revision and state any changes. The final quotation defines the supplied geometry, documentation, price and delivery terms.

Torispherical Tank Head selection and quotation checklist
The crown and knuckle radii define different parts of the profile. State the reference diameter and formed thickness and check the transition to the straight flange. Use the photographed product form to identify the arrangement, then use the controlled drawing to define what will be supplied. Similar-looking components can have different end details, load paths or maintenance requirements.
Torispherical Tank Head dimensions and tolerances
The first comparison for this torispherical tank head is crown radius and knuckle radius. Mark the dimensions that control mating, alignment and installation space on the enquiry drawing. Give units for every value and identify the datum from which it is measured. If a dimension is critical, specify its individual tolerance and measurement method rather than relying on a general tolerance note.
For the DIN 28011 reference profile, the crown radius equals the outside diameter and the knuckle radius is one tenth of that diameter. These geometric ratios do not establish pressure capacity; minimum wall, material and design conditions remain vessel-specific. Review the selection schedule together with the final drawing and inspection requirements.
Prepare the material and interface information
For a torispherical tank head enquiry, identify the required material designation and supplied condition. Describe the mating components, attachment method and environment. Include the operating temperature and any relevant pressure, movement or structural load. These inputs should describe the actual installation, including changes between normal operation, start-up and maintenance where applicable.
Specify coatings, surface finish and marking separately from the base material. If traceability is needed, identify the record required and how it must correspond to the delivered component. Agree whether inspection covers dimensions, material documentation, welds or functional testing; these are different checks with different acceptance criteria.
Custom torispherical tank head quotation
Attach the latest drawing revision, required quantity and delivery destination when contacting JINYI. Highlight departures from the illustrated arrangement, including changed dimensions, connections, finish and packing. For repeat orders, reference the approved configuration and list changes explicitly so an earlier drawing is not assumed to remain current.
Compare quotations using the same geometry, grade, supplied condition, unit of supply and inspection scope. A piece, a segment and a complete assembly can represent different quantities. Confirm quantity discounts and delivery terms with the final quotation.
Compare related component arrangements
Evaluate this torispherical head by its actual crown radius and knuckle radius and the required tank head arrangement. The photographs below show separate JINYI products for comparison.

Questions to resolve before ordering
Which dimensions need checking first?
Start with crown radius and knuckle radius and the mating or mounting detail. Check nominal designations against measured dimensions, then review the installation envelope. Photographs help identify the form; the drawing provides the dimensional basis for acceptance.
What should the quotation include?
A torispherical tank head quotation should identify the configuration, drawing revision, material, quantity, price basis and agreed inspection records. Keep these details together with the approved order so receiving inspection can compare the delivered product with the specified component.
