Graphite Metallic Pipe Gaskets

The gasket is typically composed of a thin layer of graphite sheet or foil sandwiched between two metal layers, such as stainless steel or carbon steel.

The graphite layer provides excellent sealing properties due to its ability to conform to irregular surfaces and its resistance to chemical and thermal degradation. The metal layers provide structural support and improve the gasket's overall strength and durability.

Graphite metallic pipe gaskets are commonly used in high-temperature and high-pressure applications, such as in the oil and gas, chemical, and petrochemical industries. They are also used in applications where the sealing surface is subject to thermal cycling and vibration, such as in piping and heat exchangers.
