Introducing the 10″ 150 Blind Flange RF 316 SS Fitting, a premium component designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial applications. This blind flange is crafted from 316 stainless steel, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance and durability, making it an ideal choice for industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, and manufacturing. Whether you’re sealing off a pipeline or closing a pressure vessel, this flange provides a reliable solution to prevent leaks and ensure system integrity.

What is a Blind Flange?

A blind flange is a type of flange used to seal the end of a pipe or a vessel. Unlike other flanges, which are used to connect two pipes or components together, a blind flange is solid and has no opening in the middle. It is used to close off or “blind” a pipe, nozzle, or pressure vessel when it’s not in use, preventing the flow of fluid or gas.

Blind flanges are available in various sizes and materials, depending on the application, and are often used in maintenance, repair, or testing scenarios where temporary isolation is needed.

Here are a few key points about blind flanges:

• Purpose: To block or close the end of a piping system or pressure vessel.
• Design: Solid with no internal hole (except for bolt holes around the perimeter to secure it).
• Material: Commonly made from metals like stainless steel, carbon steel, or other materials that can withstand high pressures and temperatures.
• Applications: Used in industries like oil and gas, water systems, and chemical plants.
