Petrochemical applications make extensive use of these gaskets, in addition to the jacketed gaskets of an earlier era. In order to produce a seamless, high-integrity gasket, metallic gaskets frequently employ a flexible sealing medium like graphite in conjunction with the metal. Such joints are the consequence of this phenomenon.
For even the most chemically aggressive applications, metallic gaskets from a variety of alloys are manufactured by Gruvfix
When confronted with thermal cycling difficulties, spiral wound gaskets are the preferred option. Irrespective of temperature fluctuations, their design guarantees consistent performance.
Metal gaskets provide the strong sealing capabilities of Kammprofile gaskets in conjunction with the flexibility of flexible materials. When both durability and high-integrity sealing are critical, this characteristic renders them an optimal selection.
For use in applications with narrow apertures, corrugated gaskets are custom-made. Where conventional gaskets might have difficulty providing a secure fit, their design facilitates effective sealing.
Particular designs of ring-type joints are suitable for subsea installation, although their primary application is in offshore environments. In challenging offshore environments, they are favoured due to their robust construction and capacity to endure elevated pressures and severe conditions.
