Octagonal Ring Type Joint Gasket - Style RTJ 301
Octagonal
ring type gasket comes with an octagonal-shaped section by producing
stainless steel elements, it is one kind of R model ring type joint
gasket and the various other one is Oval ring type joint gasket. It is a
pressure energized seal in radial direction. The average diameter of
the gasket is definitely slightly greater than the average diameter of
the gasket groove. The angle between ring gasket and bevel face of
gasket groove is around 23°. Octagonal ring type gasket provides
excellent sealing results whenever the contact between gasket and the
ring joint faces, particularly the outside face, and is pressed tightly
to have great sealing efficiency.
Style
R gaskets are manufactured in accordance with both API 6A and ASME
B16.20 to suit API 6B and ASME/ANSI B16.5 ring joint type flanges. And
the hardness of octagonal ring type gasket should always be 15 to 20 HB
less than the hardness of the flanges to avoid the ring type joint
flange deformation.
How the Octagonal Ring Type Joint Gasket Works?
The
Octagonal ring type gasket is positioned in the actual trapezoidal ring
groove on the flange work surface. Whenever the joining bolts are
usually tightened, they are really axially compressed and tightened
together with the upper and lower trapezoidal grooves of your ring type
joint flange, leading to plastic deformation, creating an annular
sealing spot, and establishing an initial sealing. After the tension is
certainly enhanced, the octagonal ring type gasket is radially widened
under the action of the media stress, then the inclined surface area of
the gasket and the trapezoidal groove is certainly tighter and makes
self-tightening results. However, the increase in media pressure will
likely deform the flange and the linking bolt, resulting in a relative
divorce between the sealing surfaces, along with a relative reduction in
the sealing rate of the gasket. Therefore, the octagonal ring type
gasket can be considered to be a semi-self-tightening seal.
Ningbo
Kaxite has more than 200,000 standard size ring type joint gaskets in
stock and available for immediate shipment, these include all popular
sizes of R, BX, RX style gaskets. Kaxite stocked gaskets include Low
Carbon Steel, F5, ss 304, soft iron and ss 316 materials. The most
popular type ring type joint gasket can be below 3 types.
Types of Ring Type Joint Gasket
The
types of ring type joint gaskets are mainly R type octagonal and Oval
section, BX style ring type joint gasket and RX style ring type joint
gasket: SRX and SBX type Ring Type Joint Gasket.
R Type Ring Type Joint Gasket
API
R type ring type Joint gaskets come in two fundamental types, an oval
cross section (Style 302) and an octagonal cross section (Style 301).
These types of essential styles are being used in pressures
approximately 10,000 psi. The specifications tend to be standard and
require specially grooved flanges. The octagonal ring type joint gasket
with an octagonal cross section has a bigger sealing performance than
the oval and would be the favored gasket. Nevertheless, just the oval
ring type joint gasket could be used in the old type round bottom
groove. The newer flat bottom groove design and style will agree to
either the oval or the octagonal cross section. The sealing surface
areas on the ring joint grooves should be smoothly complete to 63 micro
inches and to be free of objectionable ridges, tool or chatter scars.
They will seal by an initial line contact or a edging action since the
compressive press are applied.
BX type Ring Type Joint Gasket
The BX
ring type joint gasket is different from the typical oval or octagonal
design since it is square in cross section and tapers in each spot. They
can just be employed in API 6BX flanges. BX ring type joint gasket is
used at pressures as much as 15,000 psi. Common sizes are generally
stocked in low carbon steel, 304 and 316.
RX Type Ring Type Joint Gasket
RX ring
type joint gaskets are usually related in appearance to the standard
octagonal ring joint gasket but their cross section was created to
benefit from the included fluid pressure in effecting a seal. They are
generally both meant to API 6A and interchangeable with regular
octagonal rings for oil field drilling and production applications in
API 6B flanges. RX ring type joint gasket is used at pressures
approximately 15,000 psi. Regular sizes are supplied in low carbon
steel, 304 and 316.
RTJ SRX and SBX Ring Type Joint Gasket
SRX and
SBX Ring type joint gasket are manufactured to API 17D and used for
Subsea Wellhead and Tree Equipment. The “S” indicates the two types of
ring type joint gaskets have cross-drilled holes to make sure that any
liquid trapped behind the ring gasket on either side will flow to the ID
bore. SRX ring type joint gaskets usually be designed in accordance
with API 6BX or API 17D RTJ flanges under water
