How To Select Metallic Gaskets: A Guide To Determining the Right Metallic Gasket For Your Needs

Choosing the right gasket for your application is essential to maintaining high levels of productivity and revenue.  However, the wide range of metallic gaskets available make it difficult to determine which type of metallic gasket is best suited for your specific application.  In order to select the right fit for your application, it is important to understand which types of metallic gaskets are most compatible with respect to temperature, corrosion and pressure.

Spiral Wound Gaskets:  The resilient Spiral Wound Gasket is ideal for applications with varying temperature and pressure conditions.  Spiral Wound Gaskets have the flexibility and strength to maintain a seal under fluctuating pressure, temperature and corrosion.

High Temperature Gaskets:  High Temperature Gaskets such as the chemically resistant Thermiculite® Gasket from Flexitallic® are designed to withstand temperatures up to 1800°F.  High Temperature Gaskets can be used for a variety of applications.

Corrugated Metallic Gaskets:  Solid corrugated metal gaskets are used to ensure liquid and gas tight joints.  Garlock® corrugated gaskets and Flexitallic® corrugated gaskets are among the most popular brands for these applications.

Metal Jacketed Gaskets:  Used for heat exchangers, condensers, compressors, pumps, turbines and more metal jacketed gaskets include both single jacketed and double jacketed.  Single jacketed gaskets are designed for applications with poor flanges, while double jacketed gaskets are ideal for high temperature or corrosive applications.

Sold Metal RTJ Gaskets:  Also known as Ring Joint Gaskets, RTJ Gaskets are suitable for use in extreme applications.  RTJ Gaskets are also appropriate for applications in which corrosion is present.
