Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to gaskets and, more particularly, to an improved gasket for positioning between facing conduit flanges. These facing flanges are bolted together and some of the bolted joint characteristics are relevant to the type of gasket which is selected.
- one general style of flange gasket is best described as a corrugated metal gasket.
- One example of such a corrugated metal gasket is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,421,594, which issued Jun. 6, 1995 to Marine & Petroleum Mfg., Inc. of Houston, Tex.
- Another general style of flange gasket is best described as a kammprofile gasket whose design and construction are covered by standard EN-12560-6.
- a still further general style of flange gasket can be described as a spiral-wound gasket.
- a spiral-wound gasket is disclosed in WO 2007/087643 A2 with an international publication date of Aug. 2, 2007.
- Another example of a type or style of a spiral-wound gasket is disclosed in WO 2009/058738 A2 with an international publication date of May 7, 2009.
- a kammprofile gasket part of the existing technology, is produced from a machined substrate.
- This technology incorporates small machined grooves on the sealing surfaces which do not allow for any noticeable deflection in the core and therefore do not contribute to compressibility.
- the ability for this gasket to compensate for flange misalignment and issues with flange face parallelism are essentially nonexistent.
- the prior art shows first forming corrugations into a thinner metal core which is suitable for a compression die or roll forming process. Secondly, the prior art shows machining small V-shaped grooves.
- the present disclosure is a hybrid gasket which involves a machining step, but machining to create corrugations. Machining the corrugated geometry into a substrate with greater thickness, according to the present disclosure, creates a higher degree of stiffness and allows the gasket to recover more closely to the original corrugated geometry. This new construction thus aids in maintaining critical gasket stress.
- the ability for the gasket to deflect from a greater thickness to a lesser thickness is compressibility. This compressibility characteristic of the gasket allows the gasket to compensate for misalignment and flange parallelism issues as well as increase the ability to seal imperfect connections.
- the machined gasket disclosed herein with its corrugated geometry results in a style of gasket which is able to combine certain advantages of both the thin corrugated gasket design as well as the machined serrated gasket design and in so doing, eliminate certain disadvantages of both of these prior art styles.
- Low rigidity is listed as being both an advantage and a disadvantage, a further explanation may be helpful.
- Low rigidity can be an advantage because it allows the gasket to be folded and bent in ways which will allow easier installation when there are space restrictions or obstructions.
- Low rigidity can be a disadvantage as its more fragile nature can allow over-bending which in turn can damage the graphite (or ptfe) facing.
- the result is a gasket construction which eliminates some of the disadvantages found in both of these prior art designs while including some of the advantages or benefits of each prior art style.
- the gasket disclosed herein to provides increased rigidity and improved handling characteristics.
- the gasket disclosed herein has improved recovery and resilience.
- there is improved compressibility as well as an ability to adapt to alignment deficiencies which may exist in a flange or flange combination.
- a corrugated metal gasket for use between two flanges wherein the corrugated metal gasket is produced by a method comprising the steps of first providing an annular gasket substrate followed by machining into that substrate a plurality of substantially uniform and generally concentric corrugations.

- FIG. 10 is a partial, side elevational view, in full section, of a machined, corrugated metal gasket according to this disclosure.
- FIG. 11 is a partial, side elevational view, in full section, of a machined, corrugated metal gasket according to this disclosure.
- FIG. 12 is a graph showing gasket comparisons with gasket stress and thickness defining the axes.
- FIG. 1 a prior art style of annular flange gasket 20 for use in a bolted flange joint is illustrated in partial, cross-sectional form.
- the focus of FIG. 1 is on the cross-sectional shape of the corrugations 22 which have a generally sinusoidal shape in a radial direction.
- the letter “R” reference with arrows are added to FIG. 1 to show the radial direction.
- This style of gasket is typically referred to as a corrugated metal gasket (CMG).
- the corrugations 22 are generally concentric with a generally uniform shape and a generally uniform spacing.
- the relevant dimensional information includes the peak-to-peak pitch (A), the overall height or thickness (B), and the material thickness (C).
- FIG. 2 a prior art style of annular flange gasket 30 for use in a bolted flange joint is illustrated in partial, cross-sectional form.
- the focus of FIG. 2 is on the machined grooves 32 and their cross-sectional shape and dimensions.
- the machined grooves 32 are uniformly sized and shaped and are equally-spaced apart (concentric) into the radial pattern (i.e., concentric sequence) which is also illustrated in the top plan view of FIG. 2A .
- This style of flange gasket is typically referred to as a “kammprofile” flange gasket.
- the machined groove depth (d) is typically 0.015 inches (0.381 mm) and the sidewall angles ( ⁇ ) are each typically 45 degrees off of vertical or horizontal.
- These machined grooves 32 are essentially used to receive and hold a graphite coating. While conceivably machined grooves 32 could be machined into only one facing surface of the core metal (i.e., substrate), it is more common in terms of prior art constructions, and clearly in the vast majority, for the grooves 32 to be machined into both facing surfaces of the core metal in a uniform pattern (see FIG. 2 ).
- FIGS. 3 , 3 A, 4 A, 4 B and 4 C A partial, cross-sectional view of essentially the entire flange gasket 40 is illustrated in FIG. 3 .
- FIG. 3A provides a top plan view of gasket 40 .
- FIG. 4A An enlarged view of the machined corrugations 42 of one embodiment is illustrated in FIG. 4A .
- the corrugations 42 are formed into the exposed face surfaces 42 a and 42 b of a thicker annular gasket substrate 46 as compared to the corrugations of FIG. 1 which are formed using a compression die or by a roll forming process.
- the annular gasket substrate 46 is also referred to herein as the sealing core 46 due in part to its structural relationship with the outer guide ring 44 .
- the rounded corrugations 42 have a uniform, generally sinusoidal shape and repeating pattern which is significantly different from the shallow, 45 degree grooves 32 which are machined into the thicker FIG. 2 substrate for that kammprofile style of gasket.
- the inner portion (i.e., sealing core) 46 of machined corrugations 42 in each opposed face surface is assembled with an optional annular outer guide ring 44 .
- the outer guide ring 44 which surrounds the outer annular edge of the substrate is used for alignment purposes in the flanges.
- the outer guide ring 44 is not used with recessed flanges, such as male to female flanges. In this style of flange joint, only the sealing core 46 b of the machined corrugations is used, see FIG. 4C .
- the preferred material for the sealing core 46 is 316 stainless steel.
- the outer guide ring 44 when used, is preferably a separate component which is securely joined to the sealing core 46 (see FIG. 4A ).
- An alternative construction is to fabricate (i.e., machine) the outer guide ring 44 as an integral part of the sealing core 46 , see FIG. 4B .
- the integral outer guide ring is item or portion 44 a and the sealing core is item or portion 46 a.
- the overall gasket representing this unitary construction is item 40 a.
- the preferred construction of having two separate components as in FIG. 4A means that an annular groove 48 is machined into and around the outer annular edge face 49 of the sealing core 46 .
- the outer guide ring 44 is installed (i.e., inserted) into this annular groove.
- the machining method for the machined corrugations of the disclosed sealing core begins with the specifying and selection of the appropriate material, based in part on the intended application.
- An annular ring shape is initially machined from the selected (raw) material stock with an initial size based on the specific application.
- the machining of this starting material into this starting form uses either a water jet or laser.
- a straight strip can be formed into a ring shape and then welded to form a continuous, annular ring.
- the ring is next mounted on a lathe or CNC machine where the corrugated profile is cut by radial machining.
- the desired corrugated geometry can be fabricated by means of a milling operation.
- the peak-to-peak pitch (A) has a preferred dimension of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm).
- the overall substrate height or thickness (B), as machined into corrugations 42 has a preferred dimension of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm).
- the material thickness (C) of the material which is shaped into the series of corrugations has a preferred dimension of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm).
- Machining the corrugated geometry into a substrate with greater material thickness creates a higher degree of stiffness and allows the gasket to recover more closely to the original corrugated geometry. This thus aids in maintaining critical gasket stress.
- the ability for the gasket to deflect from a greater thickness to a lesser thickness is compressibility. This compressibility characteristic of the gasket allows the gasket to compensate for misalignment and flange parallelism issues as well as increase the ability to seal imperfect connections.
- the machined gasket disclosed herein with its corrugated geometry results in a style of gasket which is able to combine certain advantages of both the thin corrugated gasket design as well as the machined serrated gasket design and in so doing eliminate certain disadvantages of both of these prior art styles.
- FIGS. 5 , 6 , and 7 illustrate three alternative embodiments for a flange gasket according to the machined substrate method and the resulting corrugation configurations, as disclosed herein.
- the materials and dimensions for each flange gasket 50 , 60 , and 70 are listed below in Table I.
- the gasket constructions being compared include a corrugated metal gasket (CMG), a kammprofile gasket, a spiral-wound gasket, a double-jacketed (DJ) gasket, and the “new” gasket according to this disclosure.
- the “new” gasket is identified as “CorruKamm” which represents having beneficial properties of the two prior art constructions referenced herein.
- a double-jacketed gasket is one of the common designs used in heat exchanger applications.
- the new gasket construction disclosed herein is suitable as an improved replacement for a double-jacketed gasket.
- the X-axis of FIG. 8 represents gasket stress in ksi units.
- the Y-axis of the FIG. 8 graph represents the thickness of the gasket in inches.
- the gasket comparison process involved subjecting each gasket style to cyclic loading and unloading in an axial direction, as a way to simulate the compression as the flanges are bolted together. This testing approach is used in an effort to try and simulate a more extreme situation where the gasket loading can fluctuate. At each gasket loading level from 5 ksi to 60 ksi for each load cycle, the gasket compression is maintained for approximately sixty (60) minutes.
- the graphic representation for each gasket style illustrates how the gasket can help compensate for these loading fluctuations through physical recovery.
- the recovery allows the gasket stress to be maintained through the cyclical activity.
- FIG. 8 there is a clear advantage found with the “new” gasket (CorruKamm) which was constructed for this comparison consistent with the gasket structure disclosed and claimed herein.
- This “clear advantage” is seen in the form of the extent or degree of gasket thickness recovery points (P 1 and P 2 ). These recovery points (P 1 and P 2 ) show that the thickness of the CorruKamm gasket returns closer to its starting gasket thickness than any of the other gasket styles represented on the FIG. 8 graph.
- a related improvement from the new “CorruKamm” gasket is improved sealability.
- FIG. 8 Other relevant parameters with regard to what is illustrated in FIG. 8 include running this gasket comparison at ambient temperature with a 60 ksi bolt stress in a 4 inch (10.16 cm) 150 class flange. Although the referenced testing, reflected by the FIG. 8 results, was conducted at “ambient temperature”, it is noted that the actual valves may change at different temperatures. However, the relative numbers for comparison of different gasket styles is expected to be generally the same regardless of the temperature.
- FIGS. 9 , 10 and 11 illustrate three embodiments of a flange gasket according to the present disclosure, similar to what has already been described for FIGS. 3-7 .
- These three flange gasket embodiments correspond to the three CorruKamm embodiments (C-K80, C-K85 and C-K90) which are represented by the test results of FIG. 12 .
- the FIG. 12 graph similar to the layout of the FIG. 8 graph, places the gasket thickness (in inches) along the Y-axis and the gasket stress or load (in ksi units) along the X-axis.
- the illustrated flange gasket 80 has an axial thickness (t) of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm) and a pitch frequency (f) for the machine corrugations of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm).
- the outside diameter dimension (D) is 6.88 inches (17.475 cm).
- the inside diameter dimension (d 1 ) is 4.87 inches (12.370 cm).
- the outside diameter dimension (d 2 ) of the corrugation portion is 6.19 inches (15.723 cm).
- This flange gasket 80 style is denoted in the FIG. 12 graph by the designation label “C-K80” representative of the “CorruKamm” style and the specific embodiment of FIG. 9 .
- the actual gasket thickness (t) of flange gasket 80 in the FIG. 12 graph is approximately 0.197 inches (5.004 mm) based on a starting construction of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm).
- the increased overall thickness of 0.072 inches (1.829 mm) for the C-K80 gasket as tested is due to the addition of a graphite coating on the starting gasket sizes which are illustrated in each of FIGS. 9 , 10 and 11 .
- the FIG. 12 graph includes flange gaskets with a coating while the base constructions of FIGS. 9-11 represent the “as machined” construction, without any coating. The same is true for what is represented by the graph of FIG. 8 .
- the starting thickness is greater than the base core of the flange gasket due to the addition of a coating.
- the outside diameter dimension (D) of flange gasket 85 is 6.12 inches (15.545 cm).
- the inside diameter dimension (d) is 4.87 inches (12.370 cm).
- This flange gasket is identified in the FIG. 12 graph by the designation label “C-K85”.
- Flange gasket 85 has a thickness (t) of 0.093 inches (2.362 mm) and a pitch frequency (f) for the machined corrugations of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm).
- the outside diameter dimension (D) of flange gasket 90 is 6.12 inches (15.545 cm).
- the inside diameter dimension (d) is 4.87 inches (12.370 cm).
- This flange gasket is identified in the FIG. 12 graph by the designation label “C-K90”.
- Flange gasket 90 has a thickness (t) of 0.125 inches (3.175 mm) and a pitch frequency (f) for the machined corrugations of 0.250 inches (6.350 mm).
- FIG. 12 graph clearly shows that each flange gasket 80 , 85 and 90 according to this disclosure exhibits superior properties in terms of recovery through loading cycles. These superior properties exist even when the specifics of the flange gaskets, according to this disclosure, are changed dimensionally, see FIGS. 9 , 10 and 11 .
- the actual values of the FIG. 12 graph are presented below in Table II.
