AAP blind plate flange, 2"

This AAP blind plate flange is made from carbon steel plate to BS4504 PN16 (now BS EN1092). It is supplied in 7 sizes from 2" (50mm) to 8" (200mm). A blind flange has no centre bore. It closes off the end of a pipe run, a valve port or a vessel nozzle, and can be unbolted when you need access for inspection, cleaning or pressure testing. Plate flanges are mainly used for light duty, lower pressure or non-critical applications. They are cut and machined from plate steel.

PN16 is the pressure designation.

Key specifications

Choosing the right option

Choose the blind flange that matches the standard, table or class and size of the flange it closes. The 6-1/2" and 6-5/8" options are the two bore choices for 6" pipe (167mm and 170mm bore), so measure your pipe outside diameter to pick the right one. Match the standard and table or class to the mating flange and compare the drilling dimensions, because flanges made to different standards are not interchangeable. Gaskets and bolting are not included.
