Gaskets & Fasteners Category

Gaskets and fasteners are essential components for sealing and securing connections in piping systems. Available in materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and non-metallic options, they ensure leak-proof joints and structural integrity in high-pressure environments.

Gaskets provide a reliable seal between flanges, while fasteners like stud bolts and hex nuts secure these connections under extreme conditions. Their versatility makes them critical for industries such as oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation.

GASKETS & FASTENERS

Gaskets and fasteners ensure the reliability and safety of piping systems by preventing leaks and maintaining secure connections. From spiral wound gaskets for high-pressure applications to stud bolts for robust fastening, they are designed to meet stringent standards. Explore our range of Spiral Wound Gaskets, Ring Joint Gaskets, and Stud Bolts for detailed specifications.

Key Properties of GASKETS & FASTENERS

  • Sealing Efficiency: Gaskets provide leak-proof seals under high pressure and temperature.
  • Material Durability: Fasteners in stainless steel and carbon steel resist corrosion and high loads.
  • Temperature Resistance: Suitable for extreme temperatures, from -200°C to 1000°C (gaskets) and high-tensile applications (fasteners).
  • Versatility: Available in various types and sizes to match flange and piping requirements.

Types of Gaskets & Fasteners

Gaskets and fasteners are categorized by their design and function to meet specific sealing and fastening needs in piping systems.

Type Description Application
Spiral Wound Gaskets Metallic and non-metallic layers wound for high-pressure sealing. Oil and gas, petrochemical, high-pressure flanges
Ring Joint Gaskets Metallic gaskets for high-pressure and high-temperature flange joints. API flanges, offshore drilling
Stud Bolts Threaded rods with nuts for securing flange connections. High-pressure piping, power plants
Hex Nuts Hexagonal nuts paired with bolts for secure fastening. General piping, structural applications

Applications of GASKETS & FASTENERS

Gaskets and fasteners are vital for maintaining secure and leak-free connections in various industrial piping systems:

  • Oil and Gas: Seal and secure pipelines and equipment in exploration and refining.
  • Petrochemical: Ensure leak-proof joints in systems handling corrosive chemicals.
  • Power Generation: Secure high-pressure steam and water lines in turbines and boilers.
  • Water Treatment: Provide reliable sealing and fastening in water distribution systems.

Considerations for Use

  • Gasket Compatibility: Select gasket material suitable for the fluid, temperature, and pressure.
  • Fastener Strength: Choose fasteners with appropriate grade and coating for load and corrosion resistance.
  • Torque Application: Apply correct torque to fasteners to ensure even gasket compression and prevent leaks.
  • Maintenance: Inspect gaskets and fasteners regularly for wear, corrosion, or deformation.
