Blind Flanges Clause Samples

The 'Blind Flanges' clause defines the requirements and specifications for the use of blind flanges in a piping or mechanical system. It typically outlines the standards for materials, dimensions, pressure ratings, and installation procedures that must be followed when sealing the end of a pipe or vessel with a blind flange. For example, it may require that all blind flanges conform to specific industry standards such as ASME or ASTM, and detail inspection or testing protocols. The core function of this clause is to ensure that all blind flanges used in the project provide a safe, reliable seal, thereby preventing leaks and maintaining system integrity.
