Octagonal gasket is a type of metal ring gasket that matches the flange groove mainly by surface contact, good sealing performance, and can be reused.
The characteristics and applications of octagonal gaskets are shared as follows:
The octagonal gasket has the characteristics of high temperature and high pressure resistance, so it is suitable for high-pressure flanges and has a long-lasting seal, which can adapt to working conditions with pressure and temperature fluctuations.
Octagonal gaskets are widely used in pipe flanges for high-temperature and high-pressure steam, gas, and solvent, as well as seals on tower troughs, high-speed joint surfaces, pressure vessels, high-temperature and high-pressure valves, covers, wellhead equipment in the petroleum and natural gas industry, and Christmas trees.
The hardness of the octagonal gasket should be 15-20HB lower than that of the flange surface.
There are many types of RTJ gaskets, including R Gasket,RX Gasket,BX Gasket, SBX Gasket,IX Gasket,flange connections,and various customized products.We will do more sharing about ring joint gasket.
