Seaco manufactures and supplies a large variety of ring joint
gaskets. The RTJ standard size gaskets are manufactured in
accordance to API-6A and ASME B16.20 specifications. Total control
of manufacturing processes ensures correct gasket surface and
hardness to give a good seal without damaging flange
connections.The hardness of the ring should always be less than the
hardness of the flanges to prevent flange deformation. The sealing
surfaces on the ring joint grooves must be smoothly finished to 63
micro inches.
RX is a gasket designed for pressures up to approx. 700 bar. This is a
self-sealing gasket that uses a pressure-energised effect, which
improves the efficiency of the seal as the pressure rises. The RX
series is interchangeable with the R series.
