Ordered as 7GSW4F1000, this is a yellow 304 Stainless Steel Class 1500 Spiral Wound Gasket built to a 10 inch nominal pipe size and a Class 1500 pressure rating. The spiral wound gasket alternates metal windings with a soft filler so the gasket recovers elastically through thermal and pressure cycling. Source specification: Sprial Wound W/ Carbon Steel Outer Ring.
The compound resists corrosion and oxidation, high pressure, and elevated temperature. 304 Stainless Steel is widely chosen for dimensional stability under thermal cycling and a hygienic, cleanable surface suited to sanitary process lines. Exposure to galvanic pairing with dissimilar metals or chloride stress cracking in some grades will shorten service life.
Common environments for this compound include petrochemical, chemical transfer, and marine and offshore.
This item is sold individually under part number 7GSW4F1000. Unit weight is approximately 4.56 lb. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
