Description Description General Information Ring joint gaskets are solid metal gaskets and are used with stand high pressure and temperature, and they are employed where corrosive agents are presented. It is recommended that the gasket material be softer than the mating flanges. Some types of ring joint gaskets are activated when high pressure is presented; that means the higher the pressure, the better the sealability. To ensure a proper sealing the surface of contact between gaskets and flange has to be carefully processed. METAL MATERIALS USED FOR RING JOINT GASKETS Standard materials such as soft iron, low carbon steel and the range of stainless steel are available as weel as other materials on request. GASKET DIMENSIONS AND SIZES Standard sizes are available according to ASME and API 6A standards.
