Manufacturers of ASME/ANSI B16.5, B16.47 Blind Flange

A Blind Flange is a solid flange used to seal the end of a pipeline, valve, or pressure vessel. Unlike other flanges, it does not contain a center bore, making it ideal for completely closing a piping system and preventing the flow of liquids or gases. Blind flanges are widely used in industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, water treatment, and power generation where secure sealing and pressure control are important. They are available in different materials including Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, and Duplex Steel, along with various pressure ratings and sizes to meet industrial requirements.

Blind Raised Face Flanges are designed with a raised sealing surface that provides stronger gasket support and better leak-proof performance. These flanges are commonly used for maintenance, inspection, testing, and future pipeline expansion, allowing systems to be safely closed when required. Their strong sealing capability helps maintain system integrity, prevents pressure loss, and reduces the risk of leakage or contamination in high-pressure and high-temperature applications.

Arrow Piping Solutions is a trusted manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of high-quality Blind Flanges manufactured according to international standards and industry specifications. Our blind flanges are known for their excellent strength, dimensional accuracy, corrosion resistance, and long service life. We offer a wide range of Blind Flanges in different materials, sizes, and pressure classes to suit various industrial applications. With strict quality control, advanced manufacturing processes, competitive pricing, and timely delivery, Arrow Piping Solutions provides reliable and cost-effective flange solutions to customers worldwide.

Why Are Blind Flanges Used?

Blind Flanges are used to seal the end of pipes, valves, or pressure vessels in a piping system.

They provide a secure closure that helps during maintenance, inspection, pressure testing, or temporary shutdown of the system while preventing leakage and contamination.

How Are Blind Flanges Installed?

+

Blind Flanges are installed by aligning them with the matching flange connection and securing them using bolts and gaskets.

Proper tightening ensures a strong and leak-resistant seal within the piping system.
