Metal Double Jacketed Gaskets
Our Metal clad gaskets consist of a metal jacket formed around a soft filler material. Available in either a double jacketed or single jacketed construction.
Double jacketed gaskets are designed for high temperature/pressure applications or where corrosion problems may exist with the filler being completely enclosed in a two-piece metal jacket.
Single jacketed gaskets are designed for low/medium temperature pressure applications particularly where only light bolting can be applied
