These gaskets are manufactured using high-quality materials and advanced manufacturing techniques to ensure exceptional performance and durability.
2. Materials
Uni-Klinger spiral wound gaskets are available in various material combinations to suit different operating conditions. Common materials include:
Metal Winding Strip: Stainless steel, carbon steel, Monel, Inconel, and other alloys.
Filler Material: Graphite, PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), mica, ceramic, or other suitable materials.
Inner and Outer Rings: Carbon steel, stainless steel, or other alloys.
Materials are selected based on factors such as temperature, pressure, chemical compatibility, and application requirements.
3. Construction
Uni-Klinger spiral wound gaskets feature a robust construction that ensures excellent sealing performance. The key components and construction details include:
Metal Winding Strip: Consists of a thin metal strip wound in a spiral shape, providing resilience and flexibility.
Filler Material: Fills the space between the metal windings, enhancing sealing effectiveness and resilience.
Inner and Outer Rings: Serve as centering and reinforcement elements, preventing the gasket from over-compression and blowout.
The precise construction ensures uniform compression and reliable sealing under varying conditions.
4. Dimensions and Tolerances
Uni-Klinger spiral wound gaskets adhere to industry-standard dimensions and tolerances to ensure compatibility and interchangeability. Key dimensions and tolerances include:
Nominal Diameter: Range from DN 15 (1/2") to DN 3000 (120").
Nominal Pressure Rating: ANSI Class 150 to Class 2500, DIN PN 6 to PN 420, and others.
Thickness: Typically ranging from 3.2 mm (1/8") to 6.4 mm (1/4").
Inner and Outer Ring Diameter: Precisely engineered for proper fit and alignment.
Strict adherence to dimensional specifications ensures proper sealing and compatibility with flange systems.
5. Testing Procedures
Uni-Klinger spiral wound gaskets undergo rigorous testing to validate their performance and reliability. Testing procedures may include:
Leakage Testing: Conducted to verify the gasket's ability to maintain a tight seal under specified pressure and temperature conditions.
Compression Testing: Ensures that the gasket maintains adequate resilience and recovery properties after compression.
Material Analysis: Verifies the composition and properties of constituent materials to ensure compliance with specifications.
Testing is performed in accordance with relevant industry standards and may be supplemented by customer-specific requirements.
6. Applications
Uni-Klinger spiral wound gaskets find applications in a wide range of industries and processes, including:
Chemical Processing: Sealing of pipelines, vessels, and equipment handling corrosive fluids.
Oil and Gas: Offshore and onshore installations, refineries, and petrochemical plants.
Power Generation: Steam turbines, boilers, and heat exchangers.
Pulp and Paper: Sealing of pulp digesters, liquor tanks, and chemical recovery systems.
Water Treatment: Sealing of pipelines and equipment in water treatment plants.
The versatility and reliability of Uni-Klinger spiral wound gaskets make them suitable for demanding applications across various sectors.
