gaskets are designed to withstand harsh conditions
and provide a robust seal. They are typically used in
flanged connections that have grooves designed to
accommodate the RTJ gasket, providing a metal-to-
metal seal.

"material compatibility" The first consideration when
making a gasket is the "material compatibility". This
refers to selecting the appropriate gasket material that
can withstand the operating conditions where the
gasket will be used. Material

operating conditions to prevent failures and ensure
safety and longevity of the gasket.
