Choosing a gasket for a flanged joint
A gasket sits between two flanges and is compressed as the bolts are tightened so the joint does not leak. A spiral wound gasket is made of a metal strip and a soft filler wound in a spiral, and it keeps its seal through changes in pressure, temperature and line vibration.
To order, give the nominal flange size in inches, the flange pressure class and the material required. If you are unsure which material suits the fluid in your line, we give technical advice before you buy.
