Solid metal gaskets are used in applications where temperatures and pressures rule out the use of traditional gasket materials. These are manufacture from high quality raw materials. In addition to exceptional mechanical strength, other characteristics of #540 include heat conductivity and excellent resistance to high pressures, high temperatures and chemical attack. These metal used for the gasket should be softer than the metal in the mating surfaces.These are available in varied hardness and other physical parameters as per the client’s requirements.
