Gaskets
The most commonly used gaskets in piping systems are standard flange gaskets in rubber or fibre, or spiral wound. For particularly large pipes, gaskets can be manufactured in segments of rubber and joined together.
The CORE FLANGE-KIT contains all the components necessary for flange sealing. Each kit incorporates a WRAS-approved BS7531 Grade X Gasket and a complete set of bolts, nuts, and washers customised to suit the required flange rating.
Spiral wound gaskets are manufactured by winding preformed metal strips and a soft filler material into a spiral seal with excellent mechanical resistance and recovery. They are available with or without retaining rings and are made of a wide range of materials to ensure compatibility with the sealing media and operating conditions.
EPDM (WRAS) is a high-quality elastomer with excellent physical properties that meet the requirements of BS 6920- 1:2000 and BS EN 681-1 (cold potable water supply 23°C).
PG -X is a high-performance grade compressed fibre sheet material based on aramid and inorganic fibres with a nitrile binding system.
EPDM (WRAS) is a high-quality elastomer with excellent physical properties that meet the requirements of BS 6920- 1:2000 and BS EN 681-1 (cold potable water supply 23°C).
PG-T is a high-quality graphite laminate material in which exfoliated graphite is mechanically bonded to a 316 stainless steel tanged insert.
The gaskets resist oils, cooling, and brake fluids for water and steam piping systems. Due to its material content, the gasket is highly flexible and adapts perfectly to irregularities in the flanges used with it.
Graphite gaskets are versatile and can be used in various industries, including the chemical, petrochemical, and manufacturing sectors.
