Spiral Wound Gaskets
What Is a Spiral Wound Gasket?
Spiral wound gaskets are high-performance sealing elements designed for use in high-pressure and high-temperature environments. They are constructed by spirally winding a metal strip and a soft filler material, such as graphite or PTFE, to create a strong, resilient seal that can withstand extreme conditions.Usages:
These gaskets are commonly used in industries like oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, and chemical processing, where reliable sealing is critical to prevent leaks and ensure safety. Typical applications include pipelines, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and flanged joints in steam, gas, or fluid systems. Their ability to accommodate flange movements and thermal cycling makes them ideal for demanding service conditions.Description
