What Are Gaskets?
Gaskets seal flange joints, preventing leaks in piping systems. PetroPipe offers gaskets for high-pressure and corrosive environments.
Types of Gaskets
Explore our range of gaskets:
| Gasket Type | Material | Sizes | Uses | Advantages | Certifications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Non-Metallic | Rubber, PTFE | ½” to 48” | Low-pressure systems | Cost-effective | ASME B16.21 |
| Metallic | Stainless Steel, Inconel | ½” to 36” | High-pressure pipelines | Durable | ASME B16.20 |
| Semi-Metallic | Spiral-Wound | ½” to 48” | High-temperature systems | Excellent sealing | ASME B16.20 |
| Ring-Type Joint | Soft Iron, Stainless Steel | ½” to 24” | Wellheads | Superior sealing | API 6A |
Manufacturing Processes
Gaskets are made using:
- Die-Cutting: For non-metallic gaskets.
- Spiral Winding: For semi-metallic gaskets.
- Machining: For metallic gaskets.
Sizes and Pressure Classes
Gaskets range from ½” to 48”, with pressure classes from ANSI 150 to 2500.
