Browse by equipment & connection
Process piping & flanges
Flange connections in process lines, equipment nozzles and oil and gas pipelines.
- Selection considerations
- Confirm the flange facing, pressure rating, medium, temperature, dimensional standard and assembly conditions.
Wellheads & ring joint flanges
Connections on wellheads, tree equipment, high-pressure valves and equipment with Type R ring grooves.
- Selection considerations
- Check the ring number, cross-section, material and hardness against the flange design.
Heat exchangers & channel covers
Shell-side, tube-side and channel-cover joints, including partitioned gaskets for shell-and-tube heat exchangers.
- Selection considerations
- Review the drawing, profile, partition layout, material combination, assembly load and temperature variation.
Pressure vessels, reactors & columns
Equipment flanges, large-diameter joints and sealing locations requiring radial confinement.
- Selection considerations
- Confirm the flange geometry, inside and outside diameters, thickness, material and installation space.
Steam & thermal oil
Steam and thermal oil piping, valves, pumps and equipment covers.
- Selection considerations
- Select materials for the actual temperature and pressure, then check gasket support and product performance data.
Corrosive media & solvents
Piping and equipment flanges exposed to acids, alkalis, solvents and other chemicals.
- Selection considerations
- Review chemical composition, concentration, temperature, material compatibility and long-term dimensional stability.
Glass-lined, FRP & low-load flanges
Glass-lined equipment, FRP or plastic piping, and flange joints that require a conformable gasket.
- Selection considerations
- Check allowable flange load, facing condition, material compatibility and assembly limits.
Water, air & utility systems
Equipment connections in water supply, drainage, cooling water, air and general industrial fluid systems.
- Selection considerations
- Select the rubber or sheet grade for the actual medium, temperature, pressure and flange type.
Pump, valve & equipment joints
Static flange and cover joints in pumps, valves and industrial equipment.
- Selection considerations
- Confirm the sealing location, profile, thickness, material and contact-stress requirements.
Custom gaskets & equipment supply
Gaskets made to drawings in circular, oval, oblong, partitioned and other custom profiles.
- Selection considerations
- Confirm the drawing revision, tolerances, partition layout, material, quantity and inspection requirements.
Maintenance & replacement gaskets
Gasket replacement, configuration review and spare-part procurement during plant maintenance.
- Selection considerations
- Provide the original drawing or sample, flange design, previous material and current service conditions. Review any change in configuration.
