Additional Information for Spiral Wound Gasket
Spiral Wound Gaskets are a type of gasket used to create a seal between two surfaces. They are commonly used in applications where high temperatures, pressures, or corrosive fluids are present.
These gaskets are made by winding a metal strip and a filler material, such as graphite or PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), in a spiral pattern. The metal strip provides structural support and prevents the gasket from collapsing under pressure, while the filler material provides the sealing properties.
Spiral Wound Gaskets are designed to withstand a wide range of operating conditions and are known for their excellent resilience and ability to maintain a tight seal even under extreme conditions. They are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and refining.
In the supply group Hardware And Abrasives, Spiral Wound Gaskets are classified under the supply class Packing And Gasket Materials. This class includes various types of gaskets, packing materials, and sealing products used in industrial applications.
