Gaskets
Flange Sealing Technology Through Gaskets
Our work at the frontier of sealing technology gives us a clear understanding of the roles that gaskets must play, for example:
- If joint faces are absolutely flat and aligned true.
- If flanges do not distort under load.
- If loaded bolts do not stretch or relax…
…There is no need for a gasket, because the joint will be perfect.
In the real world, such perfection is very expensive to achieve and almost impossible to maintain. Therefore a gasket is the most practical and cost effective way to seal a bolted flange joint.
Our knowledge and experience will resolove the major problem of designers and maintenance engineers to to select the correct gaskets to ensure the integrity and safeoperation of their fluid handling plant.
