Understanding what materials are commonly used in Double Jacket Gasket designs is not only a technical question but also a critical procurement decision for engineers, maintenance teams, and project managers.
Double Jacket Gaskets play a crucial role in maintaining leak-free connections in high-pressure and high-temperature industrial applications.
Here we'd like to introduce the advantages of metal double jacketed gasket.
What is Spiral Wound Gasket (SWG)?Do you know?
There are two major factors to be considered with regard to gasket seating. The first is the gasket material itself. The ASME Unfired Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII, Division 1 defines minimum design seating stresses for variety of gasket materials. These design seating stresses range from zero psi for so-called self-sealing gasket types such as low durometer elastomers and O-rings to 26,000 psi to properly seat solid flat metal gaskets. Between these two extremes there are a multitude of materials available to the designer enabling him to make a selection based upon the specific operating conditions under investigation. Table 1 indicated the more popular types of gaskets covered by ASME Unfired Pressure Vessel Code.
