ASME B16.9/ANSI B16.47 Blind Flange Forged Flange

Short Description:

A blind flange is a type of pipe flange used to seal the end of a piping system, pressure vessel, or valve opening. Unlike standard flanges, it does not have a bore (center hole), making it ideal for isolating or terminating pipelines.

Key Features of Blind Flanges

  1. Solid Design – No internal opening, providing a tight seal.
  2. Pressure Containment – Withstands high pressure, preventing leaks.
  3. Easy Installation & Removal – Used for maintenance, inspection, or future expansion.
  4. Material Variety – Available in carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and other materials.
  5. Standards Compliance – Manufactured to ASME/ANSI, API, DIN, EN, and other international standards.

Common Applications

✔ Pipeline Termination – Seals the end of a pipe system.
✔ Pressure Vessel & Boiler Access – Allows inspection or cleaning.
✔ Isolation During Maintenance – Blocks off sections for repair.
✔ Future Expansion – Temporarily seals unused connections.

Types of Blind Flanges

Type Description
Flat Face (FF) Smooth sealing surface, used with flat gaskets.
Raised Face (RF) Slightly raised surface for better sealing.
Ring-Type Joint (RTJ) Uses a metal ring gasket for high-pressure applications.
Threaded Blind Flange Has internal threads for screwing onto pipes.
