What is a Blind Flange?

The blind flange is basically a flange that does not have a hub or a bored center. Blind flanges have the face thickness of a flange, a matching face type, and similar bolting pattern. Blind flanges can also be used to seal a nozzle opening on a pressure vessel.Similar to a regular flange, a blind flange has mounting holes around the perimeter and the gasket sealing rings are machined into the mating surface. The difference is that a blind flange has no opening for fluids to pass through

Advantages of a Blind Flange

1.First of all, a reasonable mechanical design structure can help us reduce the pressure and wear between the flange surfaces;

2.In addition, the material and heat treatment process of blind plate also affect the overall quality of the flange;

3.Furthermore, if the blind flange is working in a dusty or polluted environment, the necessary dust-proof devices and sealing devices should be added
