KIT TYPES

TEXSEAL

TexSeal

“TexSeal” gaskets are made with a special O-Ring sealing element inlayed in the face of the gasket. This O-Ring creates a very flexible seal that requires less bolt or stud torque to maintain constant contact with the flanges sealing surface surface.

TexSeal gaskets are available in both F and E styles.

The O-Ring seal and gasket are available in a wide variety of materials.

TYPE D

Type D

Type D gaskets are machined from a specified insulating material and are designed to fit ring joint type groove flanges.

BX gaskets are also available.

Available Materials: Hi-Temp G-3, G-7, G-10, G11, Phenolic

A 1/4” thick closed cell neoprene sponge flange protector is recommended to prevent the flanges from shorting out.

TYPE E

Type E

Type E gaskets offer complete protection for both flange faces. The gasket centers easily having the same outside diameter as the flange. This prevents foreign matter from accumulating between flange faces and shorting out the flanges.

TYPE EDC

Type EDC

Type E-RTJ combination gaskets are are made with an insulating ring joint gasket and insulating inner and outer rings. This special design gasket offers complete protection for both flange faces. The RTJ gasket provides the seal, while the 1/32″ thick inner and outer barrier rings cover the I.D. to the O.D. This prevents foreign matter from accumulating between flange faces and shorting out the flanges. It is available in most sizes and materials.

TYPE F

Type F

Type F gaskets are fabricated to fit the raised face portion of the flange face and are designed to center on the inside of the bolt circle.

We recommend that a flange protector made from 1/4” thick closed cell neoprene sponge be used to prevent foreign matter from collecting between the flange faces.

MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS

Flange insulation products are used worldwide for all types of piping and pipeline systems to isolate and prevent the flow of electric currents through a fluid or gas pipe system. A primary benefit is the control of damage caused by “electrolysis” and the danger of static electrical build up and subsequent discharge.

Kit Contents

Each insulation kit contains an isulating gasket, insulating washers, steel washers and sleeves for each bolt or stud. Flange insulation gaskets are made in all sizes, pressure ratings and virtually all suitable materials. The size and shape of each varies depending on the flange type, size and pressure. Gaskets may be purchased in kits or separately. Related sleeves and washers are provided in the kits and available in all sizes and materials.

Flange insulation kits for large diameter flanges, flanges with special bolt hole configurations, or for uses in unique or unusual environments are available by special order.
