Metal clad gaskets consist of a metal jacket formed around a soft filler material. Available in either a double jacketed or single jacketed construction, in four main styles, as detailed below:
Other jacket and filler materials are available on request.
Double Jacketed Style KYG1: Used on high temperature applications e.g. heat exchangers. The filler is totally enclosed in a two-piece metal jacket.
Available to customer specification with unlimited bar configurations or to ASME B16.20 (API6O1) for standard ASME/ANSI fla
Double Jacketed Style KYG1C: Similar to Style KYG1, except that the metal jacket is corrugated. This gives a reduced contact area and enhances its compressive characteristics. More resilient than Style KYG1. Suitable for uneven flanges.
Single Jacketed Style KYG2: Gasket comprises of a filler material which is totally enclosed in a one-piece metal jacket.
Used on narrow flanges where Style KYG1 is unsuitable.
Single Jacketed Style KYG3: Metal jacket only covers one contact face and inside and outside diameters of the gasket. This is an old design which is rarely used.
Not recommended on standard pipe flanges.
