Ring Type Joint
Solid metal type gaskets are designed for use in high temperature and high pressure environments. These gaskets must perform in very demanding applications often in the presence of strong corrosive agents. Made from solid metal and machine formed to the desired dimensions and shape they are commonly found in refineries, oil and gas fields and in chemical process plants. They are available in a variety of materials. It is strongly recommended that the gasket metal be softer than the flange material.
