Industrial gaskets and flanged joints
We supply gaskets and fasteners for piping, valves and process equipment. Material selection is supported by installation preparation, joint identification and replacement records.
Operating context
The whole application matters.
A sealed joint depends on a suitable combination of flange, gasket, bolting and assembly procedure. We select the gasket type and dimensions for the medium and service conditions; non-standard openings require drawings or a verified survey. The scope also covers recurring leaks, rationalising spare parts and preparing gasket kits for planned shutdowns.
Scope of the solution
- Gasket sheets, flat gaskets and cut parts to approved dimensions.
- Specification of bolts, studs, nuts and associated joint components.
- Replacement preparation, shutdown kits and post-assembly checks.
Engineering priorities
From operating need to design.
01Materials matched to service
Compressed fibre, graphite, PTFE and elastomer materials have different properties. Selection considers chemical composition, concentration, pressure, temperature and operating cycles. Cleanliness or product-contact requirements must be identified early so that the chosen product and its documentation match the application.
02Dimensions and mating surfaces
For standard and non-standard gaskets, we check internal and external dimensions, thickness and profile. Flange inspection addresses the sealing faces, geometry and damage. A replacement gasket should not be expected to correct substantial deformation or incorrectly aligned piping.
03Controlled assembly and records
Tightening requirements depend on the actual joint, bolt material, lubrication and required gasket loading. We prepare procedure inputs, material identification and inspection records. Installation scope and the required competence are established for the equipment involved and its operating conditions.

Before we start
Questions that shape the project.
Can the original gasket be replaced with a different material?+
Yes, after checking chemical, thermal and mechanical suitability of the complete combination. Matching external dimensions alone does not establish interchangeability.
Will increasing the tightening torque stop a leak?+
Not necessarily. The cause may be flange damage, misalignment or unsuitable material. The procedure must respect the allowable loading of every part of the joint and the approved assembly requirements.
