Double Jacketed Gaskets

Composition of a Double Jacketed Gasket

Each Double Jacketed Gasket manufactured by FraktalSeals can be customized according to the specific environmental conditions of use. Its basic structure consists of:

• Structural core: Typically made of expanded graphite, PTFE (Teflon), or technical mica, depending on the application.

• Metal covering: Commonly made from stainless steel, carbon steel, Monel, or special alloys. This metal jacket provides mechanical support and dimensional stability. The soft sealing material is enclosed within two layers of metal for enhanced durability and sealing performance.

Key Technical Features

Double Jacketed Gaskets offer an excellent combination of performance attributes, including:

• Adaptability to uneven or imperfect flange surfaces

• Chemical compatibility with a wide range of aggressive substances

• Wide thermal operating range, ideal for medium to high temperatures

• Reliable sealing performance under medium pressures, with special configurations available for more demanding conditions
