Types of metal gaskets

Metal ring gasket is a solid metal gasket processed from metal material with a cross-sectional shape of octagonal or elliptical, which has a radial self tightening sealing effect. Do you know of any other types of metal gaskets besides metal ring gaskets?

① Metal flat gasket: Made from solid metal through machining. Metal flat gaskets are suitable for sealing parts such as containers, towers, tanks, valve covers, etc.

② Metal waveform gasket: processed into concentric waveform rings through processes such as molding, rolling, or turning, with non-metallic materials such as expanded graphite or PTFE adhered to the surface.

③ Metal toothed gasket: Generally processed into concentric grooves on both sides of a metal stainless steel flat pad by a precision lathe, flexible graphite can be selected according to different media PTFE、 Paste asbestos free board or other soft metal on the bright surface of the gasket.

④ Metal lens gasket: With good sealing performance and a nominal pressure of 16.0-32.0MPa, it is commonly used in high-pressure pipeline connections.

⑤ Metal O-ring: composed of a hollow metal ring filled with inert gaskets, and the outer ring is often made of alloy material.

There are many types of RTJ gaskets, including R Gasket,RX Gasket,BX Gasket, SBX Gasket,IX Gasket,and various customized products.We will do more sharing about ring joint gasket.
