Detailed Overview of Blind Flanges

Blind flanges are solid, circular plates with no bore, making them ideal for blocking off sections of piping, isolating valves, or providing access points for maintenance and inspection. These flanges are available in various types, including raised face, flat face, and ring-type joint, catering to both low and high-pressure applications. Blind flanges find applications in industries like oil and gas, water treatment, and chemical processing. Our pricing is competitive, with variations depending on material type, dimensions, and pressure ratings, providing a cost-effective alternative to welded end caps in similar specifications.
