Overview
The Type A Spiral Wound Gasket is a precision-engineered sealing solution designed for high-pressure, high-temperature industrial flange connections. It is constructed to provide a reliable, leak-tight seal in demanding applications where system integrity is critical. This gasket is manufactured to meet established industry dimensional standards, ensuring compatibility with standard flange facings and proper fit for consistent performance.
Key Features
Engineered with a spiral wound construction of 321 stainless steel for superior mechanical strength and resilience. Fluoropolymer filler material provides exceptional resistance to a wide range of chemicals, solvents, and corrosive media. Robust design is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, offering long-term durability in varied environments. The spiral wound design allows for excellent compression and recovery, maintaining a seal under variable pressures and temperatures. Provides a reliable seal for flange connections operating at pressures up to 145 PSI.
