Carbon Steel: Gasket Stainless Steel: Seal
Metal: Seals Ring Soft Iron: Gasket

High Light: ASME B16.20 Lens Ring Joint Gasket, R39 soft iron ring gasket, ASME B16.20 R39 ring gasket

The RX type RTJ gasket is manufactured in accordance to API 6A and ASME B16.20 to suit API 6B and ASME/ANSI B16.5 flanges. The RX is a pressure energized version of the R octagonal gasket and fits the R type flat bottomed groove. The RX has an increased height and utilizes the internal system pressure to energize and improve the seal as internal pressure increases. Some RX sizes have a pressure relief hole to equalize pressure on both sides of the sealing faces.

Ring joint gaskets (RTJ Gasket) according to API 6A and ASME B16.20 for numerous industrial applications based on the customer required specifications with corrosive protection using electroplated zinc or alternate material coating of up to 0.0003” thickness.

Lens Ring A lens type gasket is a line contact seal used in high pressure piping systems and in pressure vessel heads The lens cross-section is a spherical gasket surface and requires special machining on the flanges These gaskets fit with a small bolt load since the contact area is small and gasket seating pressures are very high Normally, the gasket materials should be softer than the flange When ordering lens gaskets, complete drawings and material specifications must be supplied

Specifications A wide range of seating stresses under which the seal is effected and maintained Recommended for insufficient bolt loads to seal conventional gasket materials Easy to handle and fit Suitable for a wide range of operating conditions The soft facing layer prevents damages to the mating flange Sealing is not sensitive to uneven bolt loading conditions Can be refurbished with a new facing layer and reused
