     The sealing element of the spiral wound^®? gasket consists of a v-shaped metal strip spirally wound in combination with a soft sealing material filler. The metal strip provides outstanding resilience, while the flexible sealing filter guarantees excellent sealing. Due to this combination of materials the spiral wound^®? gasket is suitable for sealing under severely fluctuating temperature and pressure conditions. Depending on the application the spiral wound gasket can be specified with outer and/or inner rings.

Characteristics
the spiralwound^®? gasket is suitable for use
   across a wide pressure range and is therefore
   virtually universally applicable.
the spiralwound^®? gasket can be used to seal
   fluid pressures up to 250 bar and cryogenic
   temperatures as low as -200^o C and up to
   elevated temperatures of 1000^o C.
due to its sturdy design the spiral wound
   gasket is simple to install without causing
   damage (although extra care should be
   taken during transportation and installation
   of large diameter gaskets without guide
   rings).
the outer guide ring serves to locate the spiral
   element centrally on the flange faces and
   prevent blow-out.
by combining different winding meterials and
   metals the gasket can be tailored to a wide
   variety of operating conditions.
due to its non-adhesive character the gasket
   is easy to remove after service.
the gasket does not cause any damage to
   the flange faces.
