A gasket with a metallic outer shell and either a metallic or non-metallic compressed fiber filler is Metal Jacketed Gasket where the filler material offers resilience and metal jacket protects the filler and resists pressure, temperature and corrosion.
Metal jacketed gaskets manufactured at Goodrich Gasket are used as heat exchanger gaskets and also in pumps, valves etc despite of their limited recovery and resilience property. Gasket sealing is effective under high bolt loads, smooth flange surface finish and flange flatness.
The gasket materials used for its construction are:
Metallic category includes Soft iron, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Inconel, Monel, Nickel, Aluminum, Brass, Copper etc. Non-Metallic category includes compressed fiber millboard, PTFE, Tanged insert graphite, Ceramic etc.
The types of metal jacketed gaskets Goodrich Gasket offers are:
Single Jacketed Gaskets, Filler material enclosed in a metal jacket, covering the inside & outside diameter of gasket
