Spiral Wound Gasket Sterling Seal and Supply 2in x 150lb 316SS Ring 6

Description

Product Overview

The Sterling Seal & Supply SSS 9000IR2316GR150X6 spiral wound gasket combines a 316 stainless steel inner ring with a flexible graphite filler to deliver a durable, high‑performance sealing solution. Designed for 2‑inch, 150 lb class flanges, the gasket conforms to ASME B16.20 specifications for use with ASME B16.5 flanges. Its construction features a precisely centered inner ring that provides radial strength, limits compression, and ensures consistent alignment during installation. The flexible graphite core accommodates thermal expansion while maintaining a tight seal across a temperature range of –150°F to 850°F. Each pack contains six gaskets, offering a convenient bulk supply for routine maintenance or large‑scale projects.

Usage

This gasket is ideal for hydraulic and pneumatic systems where reliable sealing under high pressure and extreme temperatures is critical. It performs exceptionally in oil‑based, water‑based, and chemical environments, making it suitable for industrial machinery, power generation equipment, and heavy‑duty pumps. Install the gasket between the flange faces, ensuring the inner ring aligns with the centering groove to prevent misalignment. The flexible graphite filler allows for easy removal and re‑installation without compromising seal integrity, reducing downtime during service intervals. Recommended for applications ranging from fluid power circuits to high‑temperature exhaust systems, the gasket provides a versatile solution for a broad spectrum of engineering challenges.
