Description

Spiral Wound Gaskets (SWG’s) are widely used as high integrity and sustainable gaskets. The sealing element is manufactured from preformed, V-shaped metallic windings with intermediate soft sealing fillers. As standard metallic winding material SS316L is used and for the soft fillers, graphite, PTFE or LeaderTHERM NXT 1000 (high temp. modified Phlogopite). Due to the gasket construction, SWG’s offer high compressibility and recovery. Leader Style S SWG’s are provided with a sealing element only. The S gaskets are suitable for ASME B16.5 tongue and groove or male / female (Spigot to Recess) flanges up to 2500lbs. They are mostly used in pumps and valves.
