Blind Flanges (also known as Blanking Flanges or BL Flanges) are solid disc components used to seal off the end of a piping system, valve, or pressure vessel opening. Zeron Fastners manufactures these critical components primarily through the forging process to ensure maximum strength and pressure retention. The solid structure must withstand the full internal pressure and external forces of the system, making material integrity paramount. We supply Blind Flanges in materials ranging from high-temperature alloy steels to corrosive-resistant Super Duplex and Nickel Alloys, ensuring reliable pressure containment and isolation across all industrial sectors.
| Type | Sealing Face | Primary Function |
|---|---|---|
| Raised Face (RF) Blind Flanges | Raised portion around the bore | High-pressure isolation using standard ring gaskets |
| Flat Face (FF) Blind Flanges | Entire sealing surface is flat | Used for sealing against flat-faced cast iron flanges |
| Spectacle Blinds | Figure-8 shaped closure | Isolation for maintenance (permanent/removable) |
