SWG Inner ring is important part of sealing mechanism

An inner ring for a spiral wound gasket (SWG) is an important part of the sealing mechanism. It increases the resilience and axial rigidity of the gasket and prevents it from over-compressing in high-pressure service. It also helps prevent the build-up of process fluid in the annular space, minimizes erosion, and promotes tightness.

Inner rings are fabricated according to the customer's specifications. They are usually made from carbon steel or monel. They can also be made from other metals, depending on the conditions of service. They can also be fabricated according to the diameter and length of the flange. If the inner ring is fabricated according to the customer's specifications, it will provide additional radial support to the outer portion of the spiral wound.

Ningbo Guangyi Sealing Material Co., Ltd.  was established in 1990, specializing in the development and research of metal spiral wound gaskets, exhaust pipe interface gaskets, graphite gaskets, inner and outer rings for winding, packing rings, and copper O-rings. Passed ISO9001 in 1998. Now the company's sealing products are widely used in automobiles, motorcycles, ships, petrochemicals, power generation, metallurgy, machinery, and other industries. The products are exported to more than 20 countries including the United States, Canada, Japan, and South Korea.
