FAQs of Spiral Wound Gaskets:
Q: How are spiral wound gaskets installed on pipe flanges and heat exchangers?
A: Spiral wound gaskets are placed between flange faces or in the seating area of heat exchangers. It is crucial to choose the correct size and specification, align the gasket properly, and tighten the bolts uniformly. This process ensures a secure seal that withstands thermal, pressure, and vibration stresses commonly encountered in industrial systems.
Q: What types of media can spiral wound gaskets effectively seal against?
A: These gaskets are suitable for sealing a variety of media, including steam, oil, gas, acids, solvents, and water. Their robust construction and material selection enable reliable performance across petroleum, chemical, power generation, pulp and paper, marine, and other general industry applications.
Q: When should I select a custom size or different thickness for a gasket?
A: Custom sizes or non-standard thicknesses are typically chosen when equipment dimensions or operating conditions do not match common specifications. Factors such as flange compatibility, process pressure, temperature, and medium type influence whether a customized gasket will ensure optimal sealing performance and equipment safety.
Q: Where are spiral wound gaskets commonly used in industrial settings?
A: Spiral wound gaskets are widely used in pipe flanges, heat exchangers, pumps, and valves across industries such as petroleum refining, chemical manufacturing, power plants, pulp & paper production, marine vessels, and general mechanical piping systems where high pressure and temperature resilience are required.
Q: What is the benefit of having inner and outer rings on a spiral wound gasket?
A: Inner and outer rings enhance gasket stability, correct alignment, and prevent blowout under high-pressure or vacuum conditions. The rings also help center the gasket during installation and provide additional protection against aggressive process media, improving gasket longevity and reliable sealing over time.
Q: How do spiral wound gaskets handle fluctuating temperatures and pressures?
A: Thanks to their layered construction and the resilience of metal windings, spiral wound gaskets absorb mechanical stresses from thermal cycling and pressure changes. Their design maintains a consistent seal, minimizing leakage risks even as operational conditions fluctuate.
Q: What standards do these gaskets meet and why is this important?
A: These spiral wound gaskets comply with ASME B16.20, API 601, DIN, and JIS standards, ensuring compatibility with internationally recognized equipment and requirements. Adherence to these standards guarantees a high level of safety, performance, and interchangeability in industrial systems worldwide.
