As the name suggests, the solid corrugated metal gasket is comprised solely of metal and does not contain any non-metallic fillers in its construction. The temperature limitation of the gasket is therefore only affected by the metal selected. The corrugations provide multi-seals across the face of the gasket. A minimum of three corrugations is recommended and gasket thickness is approximately 50% of the corrugation pitch. Pitch corrugations can be 1/8” (3.2mm), 3/16” (4.8mm) or 1/4” (6.4mm). Typically used for high temperature applications and applications involving steam, water, gas, oil, etc. up to 1000 psi for Style 129 and 102, and up to 500 psi for Style 100. Style 100 is also available with soft conformable facings such as graphite, PTFE and others.
