With precision manufacturing and strict quality control, Unifit Metalloys ensures that every gasket delivers reliable sealing performance in critical industrial environments.
What Are Industrial Gaskets?
Industrial gaskets are mechanical seals placed between two mating surfaces to prevent leakage of liquids or gases. They fill surface irregularities and maintain a tight seal when equipment is exposed to pressure, temperature fluctuations, and vibration.
Industrial gaskets are commonly used in:
- Pipeline flange connections
- Heat exchangers
- Pressure vessels
- Pumps and compressors
- Refinery and petrochemical equipment
Selecting the correct gasket type is essential for maintaining system integrity and preventing costly downtime.
Spiral Wound Gaskets
Spiral wound gaskets are among the most widely used sealing solutions for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. They are constructed using alternating layers of metal winding and soft filler materials such as graphite or PTFE.
Key Advantages
- Excellent sealing performance in extreme conditions
- High resistance to pressure and temperature
- Long service life
- Suitable for corrosive environments
Spiral wound gaskets are widely used in oil refineries, chemical plants, power plants, and offshore installations where reliable sealing is essential.
Ring Type Joint (RTJ) Gaskets
Ring Type Joint (RTJ) gaskets are precision-machined metal rings designed to create a metal-to-metal seal in high-pressure flange connections. These gaskets are commonly used in critical applications where strong sealing performance is required.
RTJ gaskets are commonly used in oil and gas pipelines and high-pressure processing equipment and are typically manufactured according to ASME B16.20 gasket standards to ensure reliable sealing performance.
Due to their ability to withstand extreme pressure and temperature, RTJ gaskets are considered one of the most reliable sealing solutions for industrial systems.
Ring Joint Gasket
A ring joint gasket is a metallic gasket specifically designed to fit into grooved flange connections. These gaskets deform slightly under pressure, creating a tight seal that prevents leakage even under demanding operating conditions.
Industries that frequently use ring joint gaskets include:
- Oil and gas processing
- Petrochemical manufacturing
- Power generation facilities
- Offshore engineering projects
Their durability and high sealing capability make them ideal for high-pressure industrial applications.
Metal Jacketed Gaskets
Metal jacketed gaskets consist of a soft filler material enclosed within a metal outer shell. The metal jacket provides strength and protection, while the filler material enhances sealing performance.
These gaskets are widely used in:
- Heat exchangers
- Boilers
- High-temperature equipment
- Pressure vessels
Metal jacketed gaskets are designed to maintain reliable sealing performance in extreme temperature environments.
API Compliant Gaskets
In industries such as oil and gas, sealing components must meet strict regulatory standards. API compliant gaskets are manufactured according to specifications established by the American Petroleum Institute (API), which defines standards for equipment used in the oil and gas industry.
Benefits of API compliant gaskets include:
- Consistent sealing performance
- Compliance with industry regulations
- Reliable operation in high-pressure systems
These gaskets are widely used in refineries, petrochemical plants, and offshore platforms.
High Pressure Gaskets
Industrial systems operating under extreme pressure require specially designed sealing solutions. High pressure gaskets are engineered to maintain strong sealing performance even in demanding operating conditions.
Common applications include:
- Oil and gas exploration equipment
- Refinery processing units
- High-pressure pipelines
- Power generation systems
Using high-quality gaskets helps prevent leakage, reduce maintenance costs, and improve overall equipment reliability.
