304 spectacle blind used to connect equipment to form piping systems
Grade 304 stainless steel is the standard “18/8” stainless steel; it is the most versatile and widely used stainless steel available in a wider range of products, forms and finishes than any other.
Grade 304 stainless steel flanges are suitable for industrial, construction and transportation applications. Grade 304 also has excellent welding characteristics. Post-weld annealing is not required when welding thin sections. The material can withstand temperatures up to 870 degrees Celsius. There are different types of flanges such as SS 304 slip flange for precision applications of seamless pipes. Flanges are available in nominal bore diameters from ?” to 48″. Due to the alloy’s high chromium content, ASME B16.9 Sa 182 Gr F304 BLRF flanges are resistant to oxidizing solutions such as nitric acid up to 55% by weight and up to 176¡ãF.
