Commercially available pressure seals?

Commercially available pressure seals?

(OP)
I need to use a pressure seal to seal the body/bonnet joint for a high pressure, high temperature steam control valve application.  Are there any pressure seals that are commercially available or is each one a "design to order" type of seal.  I am looking for design guidelines for pressure seal joints.  Any good books or websites?  I saw the thread from last week (1/14) about pressure seals; it was good information.

RE: Commercially available pressure seals?

Two types of seals that may work for you are:

API BX ring gasket

Graylok seal ring

RE: Commercially available pressure seals?

i think Cefilac a french company manufacture this type of seal
