Description
Two flange mating surfaces have microscopic defects on their surfaces in general. A mechanical gasket is used to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression to fill certain microscopic irregularities. Such a gasket is called a gasket with a flange. Flange gaskets act as a static seal between the two irregular flange faces and are made to operate with varying pressure and temperature ratings under different operating conditions.
