Spiral wound gasket

摘要

A gasket for sealing between two substantially planar faces is described, the gasket comprising a radially outer metal containment member wound from at least one turn of a metal strip; a sealing portion of a softer filler material lying radially inwardly of the containment member and including at least two turns of said filler material; and, an inner containment member of at least one turn of a metal strip. The gasket is particularly useful where only relatively low clamping loads are available. <IMAGE>
