Krelson manufactures flanges that are very precise and they build them to meet international standards. This means that every blind flange that leaves the Krelson facility is ready for high-pressure service.
The blind flanges need to close which is very important for any piping system. A blind flange that seals properly and lasts a time keeps the system safe and working the way it should.
In Dubai the industrial sector works fast and the conditions are tough on the components. The blind flanges have a job to do in this environment. They keep parts of the pipeline separate stop leaks and make it possible to do maintenance and inspections without stopping the whole system.
The Krelson blind flanges are built to be strong so they can handle pressure and high temperatures without failing. This is exactly what is needed for applications and the blind flanges do this job well.
Definition of Blind Flanges:
Blind flanges are solid discs with no bore, used to close off the ends of pipes, pressure vessels, or pipeline openings. Because there is no through-hole, they block flow completely. They are used when a line needs to be shut off temporarily or permanently, or when the system is being built out in stages and an opening needs to be closed until the next phase of work begins.
Working Principle:
A blind flange is bolted directly onto a mating flange with a gasket between the two faces. As the bolts are tightened, the gasket compresses and forms a seal that holds against internal pressure. The solid body of the flange carries the load without deflecting, making it well suited for pressure-rated service. This setup performs consistently even when pressure and temperature shift during operation.
Components of Blind Flanges:
Flange Body (Solid Disc)
Flange Face
Bolt Holes
Gasket Seating Surface
Bolting System (Nuts & Bolts)
Types of Blind Flanges:
Blind flanges are generally categorized based on sealing face and pressure application:
Raised Face Blind Flanges – Use standard soft gaskets and are suitable for general pressure applications
Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Blind Flanges – Designed for high-pressure systems using metal ring gaskets for enhanced sealing
These types are selected based on operating pressure, temperature, and sealing requirements of the system.
Advantages of Blind Flanges:
Blind flanges provide several benefits that make them a reliable choice for industrial piping systems:
Strong and leak-proof sealing performance
Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature conditions
Easy installation and removal for maintenance
Durable construction with long service life
Helps in safe isolation of pipeline sections
Compatible with various piping standards
Their ability to maintain system integrity under demanding conditions ensures smooth and safe operations.
