Gaskets for SO2 and SO3 Ducting
Gaskets for SO2 and SO3 Ducting
(OP)
Hi i need some advice. I need a gasket for the the following application. 750 Deg @ 100Kpa : the meduim is SO2 & SO3 Off Gas. I have tried a couple of different (non Asbestos)gaskets but they all failed.





RE: Gaskets for SO2 and SO3 Ducting
Gasket can fail due to many reasons other than material of gasket. One of the main reasons could be crusing of gasket , to avoid crushing of gasket ensure that initial bolt loading does not exceed the gasket seating stress y. Gasket may also fail due to improper design of flanges.
What all types of gasket did you use?
