What Are the Properties of Spiral Wound Gaskets?

Table 1 highlights the properties of spiral wound gaskets:

Property	Description
Efficient sealant construction	Construction works effectively as a sealant, restricting the flow of water, gas, or air.
Sealing under heavy conditions	Provides reliable sealing under very heavy operating commercial and industrial conditions.
Material compressibility	Materials are chosen for their capacity to compress and recover under load, ensuring effective sealing performance.
Versatile compatibility	Enhances efficiency and safety by being compatible with gases, steam, acids, alkaline, liquids, oil, and other solvents.
Diverse sealing applications	Suitable for sealing flanges, pressure vessels, heat vessels, boilers, valves, compressors, and other industrial equipment.
High-pressure, high-temperature	Ideal for high-pressure, high-temperature applications, as well as low-temperature applications in various industries.
Sealing on imperfect surfaces	Provides sealability even on slightly bent or corroded surfaces, ensuring effective sealing performance in diverse conditions.
Stress compensation	Offers strong stress compensation and reliable sealing performance even under situations causing pressure fluctuations.
