Monel K-500 Blind Flanges are forged precipitation-hardening nickel-copper alloy flanges made from UNS N05500 / W.Nr. 2.4375 material, typically supplied to ASTM B865 (precipitation-hardenable forgings) material requirements and ASME B16.5 dimensional standards in pressure classes 150# – 2500#. Ragnar Metals & Tubes manufactures and exports these flanges with RF / FF / RTJ facing options, EN 10204 3.1/3.2 documentation, and third-party inspection on request.
Ragnar Metals & Tubes is a K-500 Blind Flange Supplier and manufacturer of Monel K-500 (UNS N05500) blind flanges to ASTM B865 (precipitation-hardenable forgings) and applicable ASME flange dimensional standards, with common sizes and classes available from stock, subject to current inventory, for export and EPC orders.
A blind flange is a solid disc with no bore, bolted to a flanged pipe end, vessel opening or valve to seal off the line completely for testing, isolation or future connection. Because it carries no bore, a blind flange must resist the full internal pressure across its face without the reinforcing effect of a hub, so thickness increases with pressure class more steeply than for bored flange types.
Monel K-500 is a precipitation-hardening nickel-copper alloy (UNS N05500) known for the corrosion resistance of Monel 400 combined with roughly triple the strength through aluminum-titanium age-hardening, plus non-magnetic behavior.
