In this article, we will delve into what makes spectacle blind flange an indispensable component and explore the specific parameters and characteristics of ASTM A387-GR.5 CL2.

ASME B16.48 300LBS ASTM A387-GR.5 CL2 spectacle blind flanges find application across numerous industries, including oil and gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, power generation, and offshore installations. They are commonly used in pipelines, pressure vessels, and process equipment for tasks such as flow diversion, isolation during maintenance, or blanking of unused pipe connections.

Understanding spectacle blind flange:

Spectacle blind flange, also known as a figure-8 blank flange or a spectacle flange, is a unique type of flange used in piping systems. It consists of two metal discs connected by a small section of metal, resembling a pair of spectacles hence the name. This design allows for easy installation and removal without the need to disconnect the piping system entirely. Spectacle blinds are primarily used for isolating sections of pipelines, facilitating maintenance, or conducting pressure tests.
