Can rubber gaskets be used for high pressure sealing? Why?

Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-02-01

Rubber gaskets can be used for high-pressure sealing. The rubber gasket has good elasticity and compression set resistance, which can effectively reduce the friction of the sealing part and prevent gas or liquid leakage. High-pressure seals require high elasticity, strength and abrasion resistance of sealing materials, and special treatment is required to improve the sealing effect.

Rubber gasketsIt is a commonly used high-pressure sealing material, which is made of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, etc., which has the characteristics of good flexibility, compressibility, weather resistance and corrosion resistance, and has the properties of oil resistance, acid and alkali resistance, cold and heat resistance, and aging resistance. Rubber gaskets can be directly cut into various shapes of sealing gaskets, which are widely used in pharmaceutical, electronics, chemical, antistatic, flame retardant, food and other industries. In high-pressure sealing, rubber gaskets are usually used to seal pipes, valves, flanges, etc., and the sealing effect is achieved by compression and lamination.

Of course, when using rubber gaskets for high-pressure sealing, it is also necessary to select the appropriate model and thickness according to the specific application scenario and working conditions, and make appropriate surface treatment and installation adjustments to ensure the sealing effect. In addition, for some special high-pressure sealing occasions, other types of sealing materials or processes may be required.

In general, as a commonly used high-pressure sealing material, rubber gasket has a wide range of application prospects and good sealing effect.
