Rapid Soft Cover ANSI 14" 600# (8 L42.2 / RRB 130x50mm)

Rapid Soft Cover has been developed by Reál Marine AS for the protection of flanges. The sandwich solution consists of a 5mm layer of soft cellular rubber and a 4mm layer of hard PE plastic. The soft layer ensures a dust-tight and cushioning connection against the flange surface. The hard PE plastic on top provides protection against mechanical impacts, scratches, etc.

The flange protector can be supplied with two different fasteners, either the push-fit plugs pictured, or our own Real Rapid Bolt. Both are supplied separately. To see the dimensions of the plugs, click here (the product page for the plugs will open in a new window).

Manufactured for virtually all flange types and sizes. For large ANSI flanges in heavy # classes, check that plastic bolts of sufficient size are available. If it is not possible to find suitable bolts, the RSC covers can be made without bolt holes, i.e. with attachment using nylon cable ties.

On RTJ flanges, the sealing surface may be raised, creating a gap between the protector and the flange. We can solve this by adding an extra layer of 5mm foam (purchased separately). The customer can also choose to tape around the edges as extra protection against dust. For the largest flanges in very heavy pressure classes, the design is specifically reviewed due to this extra height of the RTJ surface.
