The Backing Ring BS EN 1092-1 PN16 is designed to provide enhanced mechanical support for ABS metric flanged joints in higher-pressure pipework systems. Manufactured from galvanised steel, this backing ring delivers the strength and rigidity required to safely reinforce ABS stub flanges when bolted connections are used.

When installed alongside an ABS stub flange and gasket, the backing ring ensures even load distribution across the flange face, helping to maintain a secure, leak-free joint while preventing distortion of the ABS component under bolt tightening forces.

Drilled in accordance with BS EN 1092-1 and rated to PN16, these backing rings are suitable for applications where increased pressure performance is required, while remaining fully compatible with standard metric flange assemblies.
