Metallic Gaskets
Durlon® metallic gaskets, particularly their range of Ring Type Joints (RTJs), are highly specialized for use in high-pressure and high-temperature applications typically found in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries. RTJs are precision-engineered, metallic sealing rings designed to withstand extreme conditions, making them ideal for flanged joints, valves, and equipment subjected to rigorous service environments. These gaskets are available in different shapes (such as oval or octagonal cross-sections) and materials, including soft iron, stainless steel, and other alloys, allowing them to be tailored to specific pressures, temperatures, and chemical exposures.
The design of Durlon RTJs enables them to seal effectively by concentrating the compressive force of the flange bolts into a small area of the gasket, thereby creating a very tight and durable seal. This is essential in preventing leaks in systems that operate under high pressure. Additionally, the metal-to-metal contact of the RTJ eliminates the need for additional sealants, which can degrade under extreme conditions, thereby ensuring long-term reliability and safety. Durlon's commitment to quality and precision in manufacturing RTJs ensures that each gasket meets stringent industry standards and provides optimal performance in the most demanding conditions.
