Safety & Protection

Painting & Sandblasting Masks

Protective Masking Products

Paint on a flange face or grit in a bolt hole means a gasket that won't seal properly. Our masking products (reusable and disposable) protect flange faces, bolt holes, pipe threads, and machined surfaces during blasting and coating. A small cost that avoids expensive rework later.

Types & Variants

Flange Face Masks

Disc-shaped masks that cover raised-face and flat-face flanges. Taped or press-fitted to protect the sealing surface.

Thread Protectors

Push-on caps and plugs for pipe threads, stud bolt threads, and instrumentation connections.

Bolt Hole Plugs

Silicone or rubber plugs inserted into bolt holes to prevent grit and paint from filling the bore.

Custom Masking

Die-cut masking in silicone, PTFE, and adhesive-backed films for non-standard shapes and critical surfaces.

Common Applications

New Construction

Protecting flange faces and threads during structural steel painting and coating operations.

Maintenance Shutdowns

Masking existing flanges and connections before blast-cleaning and recoating piping systems.

Tank & Vessel Coating

Protecting nozzle flanges and manway faces during internal and external tank lining operations.
