ASTM A182 F304 Spectacle Blind ASME B 16.48
ASTM A182 F304 spectacle blind is more often used than carbon steel spectacle blind as its great anti-corrosive function.ASME B16.48 is the standard of spectacle blinds.The two components have different functions in the piping system.
ASTM A182 F304 spectacle blind is a type of flanges used to isolate a section of pipe system or piece of equipment when the line or equipment needs to be inspected or removed from service.ASME B 16.48 is a American Standard for spectacle blinds.
Spectacle blinds also known as figure 8 blinds because of the shape, is generally a piece of metal that is cut to fit between two pipe flanges and usually sandwiched between two gaskets.
APPLICATIONS:
Stainless Steel A182 F304 Spectacle Blind provides excellent performance and is used in industries such as oil and gas pipeline, heating, power plant, fabrication industry and many more. These are attached t the pipe without welding.

Difference Between Spectacle Blind And Spacer?
Spade and spacer combined together become a spectacle blind.When the size become bigger,the weight of the spectacle blind will be very heavy,so a spade or a spacer is more used.
