Service

Flange face corrosion at the flange gasket interface is well documented in seawater and hydrocarbon services typically found in upstream hydrocarbon processing and storage, power generation and desalination applications. Flexitallic Corriculite uses the unique properties of vermiculite to create a non conductive, corrosion preventing material to combat the problem of galvanic corrosion associated with graphite filled gaskets.The spiral wound gasket is a proven design, providing reliable sealing performance and high levels of gasket resilience. When used in combination with Corriculite filler it provides a high integrity, tight seal which is also fire safe according to the API 6FB test.Corriculite filled gaskets are available to suit both standard pipeline and specially designed vessel flanges. Gasket configuration and metal selection are based on application details.
