Metal ring gaskets can be classified into two types: octagonal gaskets and oval gaskets. The primary difference between these two types of gaskets lies in their cross-sectional shapes.
So when we know that octagonal gaskets can be reused, have you ever wondered if oval gaskets can be reused as well? Actually, they can’t! Oval gaskets cannot be used twice!
Firstly, the octagonal gasket, when matched with the flange groove, exhibits surface contact. Its sealing performance is inferior to that of the oval gasket, but it can be reused and is easy to process due to its straight-line cross-section. On the other hand, the oval gasket and flange groove exhibit line contact, offering better sealing performance. However, due to the high machining precision required, its manufacturing cost is also high.
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.
