Characteristics
Planisteel RJ Ring Joint gaskets are manufactured in compliance with API 6A and ASME B16.20 standards for high-temperature and high-pressure applications. The contact surfaces between the gasket and the flange must be carefully machined to ensure maximum gasket performance. Thanks to our modern equipment and meticulous production process, we are able to guarantee surface hardness and tolerances in accordance with specifications.
Ring Type Joint (RTJ) gaskets are metallic seals originally designed for the high-pressure and high-temperature conditions typical of the oil industry. They are mainly used in the Oil & Gas sector but are also commonly employed in valves, pipeline flanges, and pressure equipment in other services, as they are suitable for applications covering the entire pressure and temperature range of industrial services.
