The Slovakia ASME B16.20 Leader Spiral Wound Gasket 304LF Graphite CG/SR 4-150 is a high-integrity sealing solution designed for demanding industrial applications. Design and Construction This gasket features a spiral wound construction, combining preformed V-shaped metallic windings with intermediate soft sealing fillers. The metallic component is crafted from 304LF stainless steel, known for its corrosion resistance and durability. The filler material is high-purity graphite, providing excellent sealing capabilities across a broad range of temperatures and pressures. Outer Guide Ring Equipped with an outer guide ring, the gasket ensures precise alignment during installation and enhances radial strength. This design also acts as a compression limiter, preventing over-compression and ensuring optimal sealing performance. Compliance and Standards Manufactured in accordance with ASME B16.20 standards, this gasket is suitable for ASME B16.5 raised face flanges up to Class 150. The inclusion of both inner and outer rings aligns with the specifications outlined in ASME B16.20-2008, ensuring compliance with industry standards. Applications Ideal for use in the petrochemical industry, steam systems, onshore and offshore exploration, pipeline systems, pressure vessels, and heat exchangers, this gasket offers versatility across various industrial sectors. Chemical Compatibility The combination of 304LF stainless steel and graphite filler provides broad chemical resistance, making the gasket suitable for a wide range of media with a pH range from 0 to 14. Sealing Characteristics – Low leak rate – Non-sticking to flanges – Blowout safe – Design suitable for fluctuating temperatures and pressures – Broad chemical resistance – Wide seating stress range These features ensure reliable performance in critical sealing applications. Available Options Standard SR gaskets are readily available in sizes from ½ to 24 NPS and sizes above 24 inches. Custom sizes are available upon request to meet specific application requirements. Approvals and Certificates The gasket comes with EN10.204 3.1 certification, ensuring quality and compliance with industry standards. In summary, the Slovakia ASME B16.20 Leader Spiral Wound Gasket 304LF Graphite CG/SR 4-150 offers a robust and reliable sealing solution, combining high-quality materials and precise engineering to meet the demands of various industrial applications.
