Serrated Gaskets for Valves / Pumps / Flanges Heat Exchange / Vessels

• Seals less-than-perfect flanges to form a tight connection • Performance replacement for jacketed heat exchanger gaskets • Fire safe—passed API 6FB fire tests • Available in HEAT SHIELD® configuration for high temp applications above 850°F (454°C) • Solid metal core resists cold flow, over compression, and blowout • Rigid core provides exceptional stability, even in large sizes, and facilitates handling and installation • Available in wide variety of metals • Seals under low stress—ideal for lighter weight flange designs • Withstands extreme fluctuations in temperatures and pressures Specs. • Gasket Factor “m” = 4.0 • Gasket Factor “y” = 1,000 PSI (NOTE: When designing flanges, Garlock recommends using a "y" of 4,000 PSI to ensure the flange design is thick enough to avoid excessive deformation when assembled and heated.)
