We are eminent distributors, stockiest & suppliers of Spiral wound Gaskets.
Description:
For applications with elevated temperature variations (thermal cycling), and/or pressure variations, and/or flange turning round problems etc., gaskets with adequate residual stress (stress retention), flexibility and recovery are wanted. Spiral-wound gaskets have been designed to meet these demanding requirements.
Spiral-wound gaskets are creating of a preformed metallic strip and a soft stuffing material (PTFE or graphite), wound together below pressure, and optionally with an internal and/or external guide ring. The metal strip holds the filler, resulting in outstanding mechanical confrontation, pliability and recovery.
