Ring Joint Gasket used to stand high pressure and temperatures and they are employed where corrosive agents are present.
They are used to stand high pressure and temperatures and they are employed where corrosive agents are present. These gaskets are designed in oval/octagonal shapes confirming to R, Bx and Rx series of API std 6A.
The R-Type ring gaset can be ordered to two different profiles, oval or octagonal in cross-sections. Both types have identical pitch diameter as the flange groove they correspond to. These gaskets are used in pressures up to 10, 000 PSI. The octagonal type has a higher sealing coeffient than the oval, therefore being the better gasket of the two. The oval type is the only gasket that will fit a bottom radiused groove. Flanges with flat bottom V-grooves will accept either style. Gaskets that have been torqued initiating a metal-to-metal seal should be discarded and not reused.
