Choosing the right gaskets can be crucial to maintaining efficiency and preventing costly downtime in industrial operations. At PTM, we understand that each sealing challenge demands a unique solution, which is why we offer an extensive range of high-performance gasket types to meet your needs.
Rubber gaskets and seals are among the most commonly used across various applications. Known for their flexibility and durability, they’re ideal for environments where vibration resistance and sealing integrity are key. For industries needing reliable sealing under moderate temperature and pressure, rubber options are often the go-to solution.
Non-asbestos gaskets have grown in popularity due to their safety and versatility. They offer excellent thermal resistance and can handle a broad range of fluids, making them suitable for both general and high-performance applications without the health concerns associated with traditional asbestos materials.
Metallic and semi-metallic gaskets are designed for extreme conditions. These gaskets provide robust sealing in high-pressure and high-temperature environments, such as those found in the petrochemical and power generation industries. Their construction allows them to maintain structural integrity under significant stress, reducing the risk of leakage.
PTFE gaskets and seals are well-suited for chemical processing environments. Their non-reactive nature makes them an excellent choice where chemical resistance is a priority. These gaskets are particularly useful in systems that involve aggressive substances or where hygiene is crucial.
Sponge gaskets, on the other hand, offer cushioning properties in addition to sealing. They’re often used for their shock absorption and soundproofing qualities in equipment that experiences frequent movement or noise.
Selecting the correct type of gasket involves understanding the operating conditions and the nature of the materials being sealed.
