ASME B16.47 Series B Class 300 Blind Flanges are large-diameter flanges designed to close the ends of piping systems or isolate sections of pipelines and equipment. The solid construction provides reliable sealing and makes the flange easy to remove when inspection or maintenance is required.

They are suitable for oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation and other industrial piping applications. The referenced Class 300 Series B Blind Flange page lists sizes from NPS 26" to NPS 60" and also notes that customized flange and bolt-hole requirements are available.
Product Description

Product Description

ASME B16.47 Series B Class 300 Blind Flanges are solid flanges without a center bore. They are primarily used to close the end of a piping system or provide a removable end cover for piping equipment.

The blind flange is connected to a mating flange with bolts and nuts, creating a closed connection. This design makes it suitable for pipeline isolation, maintenance, inspection and system shut-off applications.

Compared with permanent welded closures, blind flanges provide convenient access when the pipeline needs to be reopened for maintenance or modification.

Blind Flange

A Blind Flange is a solid flange without a main center opening. It is used to close the end of a piping system or to provide an end cover for equipment such as valves and pumps.

The flange is installed against the corresponding mating flange and secured with bolts and nuts. Because it can be removed, it provides convenient access to the piping system for inspection, cleaning, maintenance or future expansion.

Advantages of Blind Flange

Reliable Sealing

The solid flange construction provides effective closure and isolation for large-diameter piping systems.

Easy Maintenance

The bolted design can be removed when pipeline inspection, cleaning or maintenance is required.

Large-Diameter Capability

ASME B16.47 Series B Class 300 Blind Flanges are available from NPS 26" through NPS 60".

Strong Construction

Forged construction provides strength and durability for demanding industrial piping applications.

Custom Options

Customized flange types and bolt-hole configurations can be manufactured according to specific project requirements.

Advantages of Threaded Flange

Applications

ASME B16.47 Series B Class 300 Blind Flanges are suitable for:
