How is a Full Face Gasket dimensioned?
O.D = O.D of Tongue, I.D = I.D of Tongue
O.D = O.D of Male Face, I.D = Nominal O.D of Steel Pipe
Self-Centering O.D = BCD - Bolt Diameter, I.D = Nominal O.D of Steel Pipe
O.D = O.D of the Flanges, I.D = Nominal O.D of Steel Pipe
What unique characteristics does a spiral wound gasket possess?
Resistance to low temperatures & low pressures
Inability to adjust to changes in operating conditions
Poor sealability with a large gasket area
Resilience to high temperatures & high pressures
What is the function of the outer ring in a semi-metallic gasket?
Centering gasketing portion between flanges
Prevents internal extrusion of the gasket when compressed
Limiting bolt load at proper compression
Preventing external expansion of the gasket when compressed
