I have a flat ringtype gasket (class 300 NPS 3) made of synthetic fiber + nitrile binder. For the flange calculation I need too choose a material from Table 2-5.1 (p.355 ASME BPVC Sect.8 Div.1) to get the factors m an y.
Which of the listed should i choose?

The best way to answer your question is to ask the manufacturer - it's their gasket, they know how to design using it.

I don't have a manufacturer, since the client is putting the gasket in question on the valve.
I'll go with the tipp of SnTMan.
Thanks to both of you
