Listing ID #4260079

SOLAS Regulations

The IMO introduced new regulations concerning oil fuel arrangements through the SOLAS amendments. In particular, regulation 11-2 / 15.2.11 require that-

Oil fuel lines shall be screened or otherwise suitably protected to avoid, as far as possible, oil spray or oil leakages onto hot surfaces, into machinery air intakes or other sources of ignition. The number of joints in such piping systems shall be kept to a minimum.

These shield are designed for the safe discharge of liquids that are flammable, and to prevent liquid discharge from joints on the electrical line. These Ship Spray Shields & Guards are made of multiple layers of PTFE coated fiber glass fabric with aluminum and silicone sheets stitched inside. Extreme care is taken to use material that does not support combustion and is flame retardant. The tying ropes used are also flame retardant. These flange spray guard rolls are available in 10 feet and 20 feet rolls.

Please note that Flange shields are used for safe discharge of liquid and are not an alternative for sealing pipe joints.
