Spiral Wound Gasket

Spiral Wound Gaskets

Spiral Wound Gaskets are special semi-metallic gaskets of great resilience; there- fore they are very suitable for applications featuring heavy operating conditions. SWG manufactured by spirally winding a V-shaped metal strip and a strip of non-metallic filler material. The metal strip holds the filler, providing the gasket with mechanical resistance and resilience. SWG can be reinforced by an outer centering ring and/or inner retaining ring. The outer centering ring controls the compression and holds the caf gaskets centrally within the bolt circle. The inner retain-ing ring increases the axial rigidity and resilience of the cnaf gaskets and acts as a Heat and Corrosion barrier eliminating turbulence between the gasket Inner diameter and the flange bore so avoiding erosion of the flange faces
