A gasket is a mechanical seal that fills the space between two mating surfaces to prevent leakage under compression.
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Thickness | 1.5mm to 6mm | |
| Inner Diameter | Matches manway opening | |
| Outer Diameter | Flange face coverage | |
| Compression Set | <20% | |
| Pressure Rating | Up to 3000 psi | |
| Tensile Strength | >10 MPa | |
| Temperature Range | -50°C to 500°C |
Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
This component is used in the following industrial products
A standardized manway assembly providing safe, pressure-tight access to the interior of metal tanks, reservoirs, and pressure vessels.
A compact heat transfer device that uses thin, corrugated metal plates to efficiently transfer thermal energy between two fluid streams.
A replaceable filtration element that captures dust particles from air streams in industrial dust collection systems.

Explore company information and manufacturing capabilities, then discuss the scope of your project with a relevant supplier.
Gaskets should be replaced during every manway opening or if visual inspection shows signs of compression set, cracking, or chemical degradation. Preventive replacement is recommended during scheduled maintenance.
Key factors include operating temperature, pressure, chemical compatibility with process media, flange surface finish, and required sealing performance (e.g., fugitive emissions control).
