Flanges, the most common problem area, need to be sealed properly to prevent leakage and must also be cathodically isolated to prevent stray currents which cause corrosion and eventual breakdown of the metal. Kleerband® is used to protect flange joints from corrosion thereby lengthening the life of the asset.

The new Kleerband® flange protectors are designed to protect flange face, studs and gaskets on raised face, full face and ring joint flanges from atmospheric corrosion encountered in chemical plants, refineries, gas plants, offshore platforms, onshore oil fields, metering stations, water and wastewater plants, pump stations and underground pipelines.

With the new Kleerband® design, visual inspection of the flange surface can be accomplished without removing the flange protector, thereby offering visual indication of potential joint leakage.
