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.

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.
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.
