Metal Gaskets
Metal gaskets are specialized sealing components used to prevent fluid or gas leakage between two flat or irregular mating surfaces. These gaskets are typically made from various metals, such as stainless steel, copper, aluminum, or other alloys, chosen for their unique properties and suitability for specific applications.
​
Key characteristics of metal gaskets include:
​
-
High Temperature Resistance: Metal gaskets can withstand elevated temperatures, making them suitable for high-temperature applications in industries like petrochemical, power generation, and aerospace.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Many metal gaskets, particularly those made from stainless steel or corrosion-resistant alloys, offer excellent resistance to chemical corrosion, ensuring reliable sealing in aggressive environments.
-
Pressure Resilience: Metal gaskets are designed to endure high-pressure conditions, providing a tight and secure seal even in demanding industrial settings.
-
Excellent Conformability: Metal gaskets exhibit good conformability, allowing them to adapt to surface irregularities and imperfections, enhancing the sealing performance.
-
Longevity: Due to their robust construction, metal gaskets often have an extended service life compared to non-metallic gaskets.
-
High Compression and Recovery: Metal gaskets can be compressed significantly during assembly and have the ability to recover their original shape after compression, maintaining their sealing integrity over multiple assembly cycles.
-
Resistant to Fluids: Metal gaskets are compatible with a wide range of fluids, including oils, fuels, acids, and chemicals, making them versatile for various industrial applications.
-
Wide Temperature Range: Metal gaskets can perform effectively across a broad temperature range, from cryogenic temperatures to extreme heat.
​
Metal gaskets come in various configurations, such as spiral wound, metal jacketed, corrugated, or solid metal types, each suited to specific applications and environments. They are commonly used in applications involving high pressures, temperatures, and corrosive fluids, such as in pipelines, heat exchangers, engines, and chemical processing equipment. Their durability and reliability make them a preferred choice for critical sealing needs in industries where safety and performance are paramount.
