From multi layered and single clear cloth PTFE cloth spray shields are manufactured for ease of visibility. With a leak indicating patch they are also manufactured from a colored cloth. The indicator is allowed to immediately signal a leak by Weep holes located behind the sensitive pH indicating patch.
Green if an alkali and red in the presence of an acid, it will change color. Allowing reuse of the shield the pH patch is also replaceable. Teflon flange shield is resistant to fumes, rain and sun and UV stabilized and may be used outdoors or indoors.
By one person and without any tools, our shields are easily and quickly installed by means of loop and hook drawstrings and fastener.
Regulator standards set by agencies such as ARS & DNV, EPA, OSHA, SOLAS, MSHA, are met by Spray Shields, and by some insurance companies they are also required.

Reasons for using spray shields
- Injuries or damages caused from leakage of Flanges in pipes containing hazardous chemicals are prevented by Spray shields.
- Spray Shields are required for protection of people and equipment nearby, pollution prevention and site cleanliness.
- Spray Shield enhances safety and help in reaching zero accidents.
Installation
- Leakage of oil and fuel which have explosion and fire hazard
- Pipelines containing alkali or acid under severe pressure and temperature conditions or close to human contact
To reduce and prevent catastrophic injury and damage to equipment, property, and workers by temporarily containing hazardous sprays and leaks, Safety Spray Shields are designed. By preventing downtime from recordable accidents or failures early leak detection helps minimize maintenance costs in plants.
On flanges in caustic and acid chemical services these are most commonly used, as they are sometimes called. For unions, valves, or any other type of pipe joint Flange Wraps, Flange Guards, and Flange Protectors, are available.
In these common hazardous and corrosive instances Safety Shields are recommended on connections:
- Piping near traffic areas and walkways
- Piping near eye and head level
- Piping delivering flammables near electronics and hot surfaces
- Piping in confined and tight spaces
- Loading and Unloading areas, including terminals and docks
Ranging from budget minded, economical materials to fabrics designed for extreme service in Spray Shield lines, in a variety of materials, Flange Spray Shields are available to suit every application and budget.
Of the same quality tested design of weather resistance fabrics, UV, and chemical, These Flange Shields are constructed.
In less hazardous chemical applications at lower pressures, concentrations, and temperatures Polyethylene Safety Shields, Polypropylene Safety Shields, and PVC Safety Shields are typically used. Food processing industries, water treatment facilities, and new plant startups are Common uses of PVC Safety Shields.
