Features of Class 1500 Blind Flanges
- Standard: ANSI / ASME B16.5
- Pressure Rating: Class 1500, suitable for high-pressure environments
- Purpose: Primarily used to seal pipeline ends, valve openings, or vessel openings to prevent fluid leakage
- Materials: Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, etc., selected based on the application requirements.
Class 1500 Blind Flanges Applications
- High-pressure pipeline systems
- Oil and gas extraction, chemical, and petrochemical industries
- Pressure vessels and pipeline systems that require high sealing integrity
ANSI / ASME B16.5 Class 1500 Blind Flange, due to its high-pressure tolerance, is commonly used in industries with stringent requirements.

FAQ
The right dimensions depend on:
- Nominal Pipe Size (NPS)
- Pressure Rating (Class 1500)
- Standard Flange Face Type (e.g., Raised Face, Flat Face)
You can refer to the ANSI / ASME B16.5 standard or consult manufacturers’ dimension charts for detailed specifications based on NPS and pressure class.
In addition to ANSI / ASME B16.5, other relevant standards include:
- ASME B31.3 for Process Piping
- ASME BPVC Section VIII for Pressure Vessels
- API 6A for Equipment Used in Oil and Gas Drilling
