A lens ring joint gasket and a spiral wound gasket serve different sealing needs in industrial piping and pressure systems. This article compares their design, materials, sealing performance, pressure and temperature limits, and typical applications to help you choose the right gasket type for your flange connection.

This article provides an overview of the standard dimensions for BX ring joint gaskets, including API 6A size designations, critical dimensions, and tolerances used in high-pressure flange connections.

Learn when to choose graphite-filled spiral wound gaskets for reliable sealing in high-temperature, high-pressure, and corrosive industrial applications.

Non-rounded spiral wound gaskets provide superior sealing for irregular or non-standard flange geometries, offering enhanced reliability and leak prevention in critical applications where conventional round gaskets cannot achieve a precise fit.

Nuclear spiral wound gaskets rely on optimal material combinations to handle intense radiation, heat, and pressure. The best choices include Inconel or 316L stainless steel for the metal winding, paired with flexible graphite or mica fillers to deliver durable, leak-proof sealing in critical nuclear environments.

ASME B16.20 specifies the dimensions, materials, and markings for spiral wound gaskets used with ASME B16.5 and B16.47 flanges, ensuring reliable sealing in piping systems.
