Gaskets

PETROSADID prides itself on providing Standard and Custom Engineered gaskets to match our customer’s needs.

Flange gaskets are used for improved joint performance. They are considered much more superior than the conventional ring or full-face gaskets. Although flange gaskets are usually used for all normal water and sewer service, they are especially useful in demanding services like in very large diameter flanged piping. For specially designed long-span installations, involving 2 or 3 or more lengths of pipe or with any underground flanges, flange gaskets are of great help because they could be subjected to undesirable beam loading.

• Pressure – Gasket material must withstand entire design pressure range of the fluid it handles.

• Corrosion resistance – Gasket material should not corrode when it comes in contact with the fluid it handles or by the environmental exposure.

• Types of fluid – Gasket material should be capable of dealing with different type of fluids if installed in line that handles more than one types of fluids.

• Robustness – The gasket must be capable of withstanding all movement that may occur due to change in temperature and pressure.

• Availability – Gasket should be easily removable in order to be replaced.

• Cost – Cheap and unreliable gasket should not be used at the same time it should not be costly.
