5 Tips for Choosing the Right Rubber Gaskets! http://www.wye-valley.co.uk/
Gasket failure will happen if you do not address issues like uneven pressures on mating surfaces, loss of torque on securing bolts and uneven temperature. Hence, it is advised to get all the detailed information about the gasket’s future environment. In other words, you are expected to study the temperature, fluid pressure and the corrosive properties of the liquid. After your study, you can go forward to select the gasket of proper material and shape. Study the Configurations and Applications of Gasket
Selecting the material for the gasket is the next step after you have decided the future environment of gasket working. Elastomeric, Metallic and Non-metallic are the main materials used in the manufacturing of gaskets. Elastomeric gaskets are incompressible, extensible and elastic in nature. Soft Gaskets can be easily compressed under a low bold load. Metallic gaskets are prepared from combination of metals and are available in various shapes and sizes. Select the Proper Material
Evaluate the level of chemical resistance your gasket will need because the corrosive properties in the fluid play an important role. For e.g. NBR i.e. Nitrile Rubber is resistant to oil but not useful with oxidizing fluids. Analyse Chemical Resistance
Testing the performance of gasket is necessary to ensure that your gasket meets all the specifications required by your application. You can test your gasket performance by using methods like hot compression test, creep relaxation testing etc. This will help you to know if your gasket has the capacity to withstand temperature, compression, pressure, and resistance to chemical degradation. Test the Gasket Performance
This is a very important step for your business. You should not go for a gasket maker if he only sells you the gasket and walks away. Instead, you can hire a Gasket Manufacturerlike Wye Valley Precision Engineering which will help you in selecting the right type of gaskets based on your business requirements. Their staff is trained and is ready to assist you in selection along with providing technical data which will help you to take the right decision. Choose the Right Gasket Manufacturer
