Material & Coating Options

  • 316L – general corrosion resistance, cost‑effective
  • 625 (Inconel®) – excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion
  • 718 (Inconel®) – high strength, ideal for sour gas and high‑pressure environments
  • PTFE Coating – prevents galling, aids installation, colour‑coded per grade

All rings are marked internally with grade and manufacturer traceability.

PTFE Coating Colour Code – NORSOK Identification

Per NORSOK L-005, each IX seal ring is coated with a distinct PTFE colour for instant visual identification of the steel grade:

316L
Grey PTFE
625
Orange PTFE
718
Green PTFE
Custom
Yellow / others on request

* PTFE coating also prevents galling and eases disassembly during maintenance.

Installation Tips – IX Seal Ring Best Practices

  • Inspect the ring – Check for any damage to the PTFE coating or marking before installation.
  • Clean flange surfaces – Ensure flange grooves are free of debris, rust, and old gasket material.
  • Apply light lubricant – A thin layer of compatible anti‑seize compound on the ring aids installation.
  • Use proper torque – Follow NORSOK or flange manufacturer torque specifications for even bolt loading.
  • Colour verification – Confirm the PTFE colour matches the required steel grade per your NORSOK standard.
  • Check marking – Ensure internal marking is legible and matches certification paperwork.
  • Re‑torque after start‑up – For high‑temperature applications, re‑tighten bolts after thermal cycling.

Frequently Asked Questions – IX Seal Ring

What is an IX seal ring and where is it used?

An IX seal ring is a metal sealing element designed for compact flange connections in accordance with the NORSOK L-005 standard. It is primarily used in offshore oil and gas, subsea pipelines, and high-pressure petrochemical applications where reliable, leak‑tight sealing is critical.

What steel grades are available for IX seal rings?

Kaxite offers IX seal rings in 316L, 625 (Inconel®), and 718 (Inconel®). Each grade is coated with PTFE in a distinct colour – grey for 316L, orange for 625, and green for 718 – for easy visual identification per NORSOK requirements.

Why is PTFE coating important for IX seal rings?

The PTFE coating serves multiple purposes: it prevents galling between the ring and flange, reduces friction during installation, aids disassembly during maintenance, and provides colour‑coded identification of the steel grade, simplifying field inspection.

What pressure and temperature ranges can IX seal rings withstand?

IX seal rings are designed for pressures up to 15,000 psi and temperatures ranging from -196°C to +450°C, depending on the material grade selected. For specific application requirements, please consult our engineering team.

Can Kaxite produce custom-sized IX seal rings?

Yes, we manufacture custom sizes from 1/2" to 24" and beyond, based on your specific flange dimensions. We also support custom steel grades, coatings, and marking requirements.

What documentation and traceability do you provide?

Every IX seal ring includes internal marking with grade and manufacturer traceability. We provide EN 10204 3.1 material certificates (3.2 available on request), dimensional inspection reports, hardness test records, and NDT reports upon request.

What is the typical lead time for IX seal rings?

Standard lead time is 15–30 days for bulk orders and 5–7 days for sample orders. Expedited shipping options are available – please inquire with our sales team.
