Overview
The 304 Stainless Steel Spiral Wound Gasket is engineered for creating robust, long-lasting seals in industrial flanged connections. Its spiral wound construction combines the strength of a metal windings with the compressibility of a soft filler, forming a seal that accommodates surface irregularities and maintains integrity under pressure fluctuations and thermal cycling. This gasket is designed for general service applications across chemical processing, power generation, oil and gas, and HVAC systems, providing a reliable barrier against leaks.
Key Features
Constructed with 304 stainless steel outer windings for excellent corrosion resistance Flexible graphite filler provides superior sealing and thermal conductivity Spiral wound design offers resilience and recovery under bolt load Suitable for a wide range of temperatures and media common in industrial service Conforms to common industry dimensional standards for reliable fitment
