SPIRAL WOUND GASKETS

Spiral wound gaskets are available in various different forms and materials all designed around the sealing element. The spiral wound sealing element consists of a metallic winding strip with layers of a softer, more compressible material. The most common type of spiral wound gasket consists of solid metal inner & outer rings and the spiral wound sealing element. The winding, filler and metal rings are available in a range of different materials which are all listed below along with the different types of spiral wound gaskets that we supply.

TYPE CRIR

TYPE CR

  • Spiral wound sealing element
  • Solid metal inner & outer ring
  • Suitable for high pressure & temperature applications
