Proper selection of gasket depends upon the following factors. We hold dedicated tooling for all gasket tables such as: A Full Face gasket is one that covers the whole of the flange. Full face gasket can only be used with FF flange and normally used for temporary connection of utility lines. Types of metallic gaskets include the following: These are basics about the different types of gaskets. They sit within the circle of the bolts used to secure the joint and are purely a continuous ring of material. Non-Metallic The filler material of the winding can be a Flexible Graphite or PTFE depends on of service temperature of gaskets. With technology today involving more digital displays to provide information, equipment manufacturers need to protect the sensitive display units from shock, ingress of dust or other particles that may include liquids. Normally Graphite or PTFE used as filler material & stainless steel or other exotic material is used as the winding material. The projects that we have worked on include: the light stick sculpture on the M5, the Paris Metro, the media centre at Lords cricket ground, the channel tunnel, and a Mars Lander prototype. Pipe gaskets (otherwise known as flange gaskets) are made from wide range of materials such as rubber, non-asbestos and graphite. A flange leak results in loss of product and energy.
