About This Product

Spectacle Blind Flanges

GS MetalFit supplies spectacle blind flanges designed for positive isolation and controlled flow arrangements in industrial and process piping systems. A spectacle blind consists of a solid blind section and an open section connected by a web or handle, allowing the flow path to be changed by rotating the assembly between the open and closed positions.

Spectacle blind flanges can be installed between existing flanges without requiring welding to the pipe, making them suitable for piping systems where regular isolation or maintenance access is required.

Our range is available in stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex and super duplex steel, nickel alloys and copper-nickel materials. Products can be supplied in different sizes, pressure classes, material grades, face configurations and dimensions according to specified project requirements.
