We have had problems with leaks on the flanged connections on our vertical platforming unit combined feed exchangers. We have steam rings installed to manage any leaks when they occur. The gasket is a double jacketed grafoil filled. Anyone else out there with a similar problem? Are steam rings common elsewhere?
