JACKETED GASKET

Product Description

A renowned supplier of extremely resilient jacketed gaskets, Mercer Gasket & Shim combines the best sealing capabilities of soft filler with the exceptional temperature resistance of a metal jacket.Similar to our solid metal gaskets, Mercer can create jacketed gaskets from any metal in any thickness to offer blowout resistance and compressive strength, contingent on the corrosive conditions of the application. Non-asbestos, flexible graphite, ceramic, PTFE, and corrugated metal are among Mercers filler materials for jacketed gaskets because of their exceptional compressibility and robustness. Since a jacketed gaskets design frequently calls for various shapes for various purposes, Mercer provides a large selection of styles, such as: SP1Single Jacket: The most basic form of jacketed gasket, with coverage on one face and both edges.SP2Single Jacket with Overlap: Where full coverage is needed and flange is narrow relative to gasket ID.SP3Double Jacket: Where full coverage is needed and flange is wide relative to gasket ID.SP4Double Jacket with Double Shell: Stronger and more rigid than double jacket gasket.SP5Double Gasket Corrugated: Corrugations create a labyrinth seal across the gasket face.SP6French Style Jacket: Provides coverage on one side only (inside or outside) and both faces. Flange is narrow relative to gasket ID.SP7French Style Jacket: Provides coverage on one side only (inside or outside) and both faces. Flange is narrow relative to gasket ID.SP8French Style Jacket, two and three piece construction: For wide or irregular shapes. Available with coverage on either inside or outside edge and both surfaces.FILLERS The fillers temperature and pressure range is increased with a metal jacket.Five primary categories of filler exist: The absence of asbestos Graphite that is flexible Ceramic Corrugated metal and PTFE Our highly skilled engineering staff will help you choose the best jacket metal, filler material, and design by carefully weighing cost.
