Flanges are manufactured to ANSI B16.5 or DIN 2501 specifications from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy.  Flanges are offered as either flat faced or raised face.  The Storz connection is attached to the flange via BSP threads and utilizes an O-ring to create a watertight seal.

 

The Storz Blind Cap is used to close off open hoses, distribution manifolds, or piping systems to prevent leakage on unused connections.  Caps include a nylon coated stainless steel cable to secure the cap and prevent accidental misplacement.  A optional petcock valve can be supplied to allow for pressure reduction prior to cap removal.
