Specification of Metal Jacketed Gaskets
Metal Jacketed Gaskets
Metal Jacketed gaskets are the most basic type of semi-metallic gaskets combining the high pressure suitability and blow out resistance of metallic materials with the improved compressibility of soft materials. Metal jacketed gaskets offer an economical seal where sealing faces are narrow and can be produced in a variety of shapes and configurations, making them a good option for heat exchangers.
Corrugated gaskets are a highly versatile family of products, available in wide variety of configurations and suited to a wide range of applications. For improved sealing performance the corrugated gaskets can be partially or completely covered.
Metal Jacketed and corrugated gaskets can be manufactured to suit a range of chemical environments by the selection of a suitable alloy jacket or core. The fillers can be non asbestos mill board , non asbestos sheet material, Ceramic, Graphite, Mica or PTFE. Standard thickness is 3.0mm but thickness can vary to suit customer requirements.

Double Jacketed Gasket
Constructed of soft filler encapsulated by a metal jacket and insert. Designed for use on high temperature and pressure applications.
Style 101
Style 101
Single Jacketed Gasket
Constructed of soft filler covered by a metal jacket on both sides and one face. The gasket is ideal for narrow applications or moderate service conditions.
Style 102
Style 102
Single Jacketed Gaskets Totally Enclosed
Constructed of soft filler completely enclosed in a single jacket for use in applications where the width does not permit the use of a double jacketed gasket.
Style 103
Style 103
Single Jacketed Gaskets Open on Outer Diameter
Ideal for narrow applications where protection of the soft filler on the inner diameter is a requirement. Used in valve bonnets, sight glasses and vacuum Seals.

Double Jacketed Corrugated (Soft Filler)
The reduced contact area of the construction enhances compressive characteristics making it more suited to applications of lower bolt load or where flanges are uneven. Gasket Kit
