FlangeGuards: Customizable Safety Solutions for Every Application

At Gallagher Fluid Seals, we know that in the sealing industry, there is no on-size-fits-all solution; and that includes flange safety. Industrial piping systems come in countless shapes, sizes, and configurations, making it essential to have safety solutions that can adapt to your specific requirements. That’s why we’re proud to partner with FlangeGuards, a trusted name in flange protection products, to bring highly customizable shielding solutions to our customers.

Two Types of FlangeGuard Shields

FlangeGuards designs and manufactures two main categories of flange shields:

Fabric “bag” style shields – These are the conventional, older-style designs commonly found across the industry. They are highly versatile and can be fabricated into custom shapes and sizes, making them suitable for unusual pipe joints or non-standard configurations.
SUREBAND shields – FlangeGuards’ own proprietary design, engineered to overcome operational challenges often seen with conventional fabric shields. Available in STEEL and CLEAR materials, SUREBAND represents a superior alternative in terms of performance, safety, and long-term reliability.

While fabric shields have their place in certain applications, SUREBAND is the true focus—delivering both standard and fully customizable options to meet unique industrial needs.

Customization Beyond the Basics

Many customers assume customization only applies to fabric-style shields, but SUREBAND shields can be tailored as well. Whether you’re working with a butterfly valve, an expansion joint, or a non-standard flange arrangement, FlangeGuards’ design team can review your requirements and engineer a SUREBAND solution built for your system.

This level of customization ensures that your shields are optimized for functionality, safety, and ease of use in your specific operating environment.
