Safety Shields also known as Splash guards are used in a variety of industries, where their primary application is the prevention of harmful spray-outs and mist formation from failing pipe joints, of toxic, corrosive and dangerous liquids such as acid, oil or steam.

Pipe joint failures have been responsible for a large number of high profile industrial incidents around the world. Acid, oil and steam jet spray-outs have resulted in many severe personal injuries, either directly or through consequent fires and explosions. Industry regulators have recognized the importance of shielding pipe joints (flanges, valves, couplings, hoses) to prevent jet leaks or the formation of explosive mist. Such spray-outs can have catastrophic effects, in many cases resulting in fire or explosions causing considerable plant down time, capital expenditure and even loss of life.

Safety or Spray Shields offer the last line of defence. They are not designed to contain the leak indefinitely; they are designed to control the leak safely allowing liquid release vertically. Ultimately, they prevent harmful spray out.

Not all spray shields are the same.

Installing SPLASHGUARDS safety shields is both simple and quick, requiring no tools. This shield designs are available in special imported PPH Grade with UV stabilized. It is made to fit specific joint/fitting types and sizes.
