FLANGE
BAND PROTECTORS
NEW Kleerband Flange Protectors are the quick, easy
and effective way to apply protection and prevent corrosion. Why try
and protect flanges the old way when APS has the new, clear
advantage to prevent corrosion? Kleerband Flange
Protectors are manufactured of 100% virgin vinyl compound, which
allows visual inspection of the flange surface without removing the
flange protector.
Flanges, the most common trouble area, need to be sealed properly
to prevent leakage and must also be cathodically insulated to prevent
stray currents which cause undo corrosion and eventual breakdown
of the metal. Advance
Products & Systems manufactures and
maintains
a supply of quality products and materials which help solve most
flange sealing problems, therefore preventing subsequent corrosion
and saving the integrity of the pipeline.
CORROSION
COSTS MONEY
Advance Flange Protectors are designed to protect studs and
gaskets on raised face and ring type joint flanges from atmospheric
corrosion encountered in chemical plants, refineries, gas plants,
offshore platforms, onshore oil fields, ships, paper mills and underground
pipelines. Stainless
steel or plastic models are available, in all sizes, for preventing
corrosion between flanges on piping systems.
FLANGE
PROTECTOR
Advance
Flange Protectors and corrosion inhibitor grease are recommended
on all insulated flanges. By encapsulating the flange cavity with
the flange protector and injecting our corrosion inhibitor grease,
you can rely on your cathodic protection system to provide you with
years of trouble free service.
This
system totally eliminates any possibility of foreign matter lodging
between the faces of your flange or corrosion bridging across and
creating a short. Advance Flange Protectors are manufactured of
22 gauge 304 or 316 stainless steel band, stainless steel worm-gear
strap, and grease fitting. An exclusive positive loading relief
vent and plug that assures complete loading of flange cavities,
plus allows you to visually inspect the flange without removal of
the protector, is standard. The gasket is made of 3/16" closed
cell neoprene for positive seal. (Other gasket material available
upon request.)
Advance Flange Protectors are manufactured according to ANSI B16.5
specifications up to 24". Above 24", please provide the
specifications of your flange including the circumference. Technical
assistance is available upon request.
