What Flexitallic Spiral Wound Gaskets Offer
Flexitallic Spiral Wound Gaskets are designed to resist corrosive and toxic elements, ensuring long-term performance even in the most demanding environments. With metallic windings and a reinforced gasket structure, they are ideal for industrial applications where durability and reliability are essential.
Features & Benefits:
- Metallic Winding: Suited for cyclic loading, ensuring durability in dynamic conditions.
- Outer Ring Center Gasket: Adds structural integrity and ensures a secure seal.
- Blow-Out Resistance: Inner and outer rings provide additional strength and a compression stop to prevent blow-out.
- Flange Protection: Prevents flange erosion and inward buckling.
- Reduced Flow Turbulence: Helps reduce turbulent flow, improving system efficiency.
- High-Pressure/Temperature Capability: Recommended for use in severe high-pressure, high-temperature applications.
These gaskets are ideal for long-term performance, providing effective sealing under challenging conditions while protecting surrounding components.
Potential Applications & Industries
Flexitallic Spiral Wound Gaskets are commonly used in high-temperature and high-pressure applications, including flanged joints, heat exchangers, boiler handholds, and manholes. Their ability to maintain a tight seal under fluctuating conditions makes them perfect for a wide range of industrial applications.
These gaskets are vital for industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and aerospace, where the sealing of high-pressure, high-temperature systems is critical. Their versatility also extends to industries dealing with corrosive and toxic elements, making them essential for safeguarding the integrity of complex machinery and equipment.
Design Specifics & How The Product Works
Flexitallic Spiral Wound Gaskets are engineered with alternating layers of metal and filler material, wound to form a flexible yet strong seal. The combination of materials ensures excellent recovery after compression, maintaining a tight seal even after repeated thermal cycles. The gasket’s structure is designed to accommodate flange misalignment and minor surface imperfections, allowing for easy installation and long-lasting performance.
What Makes Spiral Wound Gaskets So Effective? Their effectiveness lies in the unique design of the metallic winding and reinforced structure. This allows the gaskets to provide excellent sealing performance under fluctuating pressure and temperature while preventing damage to flange surfaces. Their ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions ensures reliable, continuous service without the need for frequent maintenance or replacement.
