Vienna UTEX 001144 ttLINGER takes the guesswork out of gaskets The new Klinger dimensioning method gives you quick solutions to many gasket problems . . . Successful gasket design Involves three basic elements: The right gasket material The right gasket dimensions The right gasket surface stress Choosing the material Is usually straight forward since your Klinger catalogue gives recommendations for most common media. Getting the dimensions and stres ses right Is more difficult and In some cases requires the help of specialist gasket engineers, but there are plenty of everyday problems that you can solve without being a .gasket specialist, as this booklet shows. (id The data In this book have been com piled by ISTAG AG, central research organization of the Richard Klinger group of companies. They apply solely to the Klinger materials KLINGERIT , KLINGERIT4O0 UNIVERSAL and KLINGEROILIT. UTEX 001145 Klingerit A top quality sheet (or general use, composed of asbestos fibre with SBR binder. Used mainly on steam services but has excellent resistance to many oils and chemicals. Meets many UK, US and other specifications including BS 1632, BS 2815 A, DIN 3754 (It 400) and ASTM D 1170 Grade P.1161 A. Normally recom mended maxima: 550 C (1,000" F) and 1750 - 2,000 psl (120-140 atm). Klingerit 400 Universal A high temperature/high pressure sheet with outstanding resistance to oils, fuels and lubricants. Composed of asbestos with NBR binder. Has controlled low chloride content making It especially suitable for stainless steel flanges. Spe cification compliance Includes DTD 376 A, BS 2815 A, DIN 3754 (It C) and ASTM D.1170 Grade P.1141 A. Normally recom mended maxima: 550"C (1,000" F) and 2,000 psi (140 atm). Klinger-Oilit 0A high pressure sheet with excell resistance to hot oils, hydrocarbons etc. Composed of asbestos with NBR binder. Klinger-Oilit is widely used In the oil and chemical industries and meets BS2615A. DIN 3754 (It-Oe) and ASTM D.1170 Grade P. 1141 A. Normally recommended maxima: ca. 500" C (900" F) and 1.500 psi (100 atm). UTEX 001146 How gaskets seal ^^nlmum surface stress at working pres sure) If flange surfaces mated perfectly there would be no need for gaskets. In practice, Manges always have slight surface Irregularities, and a compres sible, resilient material -- the gasket -- is used to compensate for them. This provides an uninterrupted barrier against the medium and compensates for slight movement of the flanges during service. Even at low Internal pressures the gasket must be pressed against the flanges with a definite minimum surface stress. This "deformation stress" depends on the structure and compressibility of the gas( ^ material; for Kllngerlt, Kllngerlt 400 t^Pversal and Klinger-Oillt It Is 750 psi (50 kp/cm') for liquids 3,000 psi (200 kp/cm') for gases At higher Internal pressure (p;) additional gasket stress is necessary. This gives a total minimum surface stress (pd ) at working pressure: m,n (1) for liquids P0.min - 750 psi (50 kp/cm') + 2.5 p,* (2) for gases p - 3,000 psi (200 kp/cm') + 4 p, min Values of pd calculated from these min formulae are given In Tables 3a and 3b (pages 13 and 14). The factors 2.5 and 4 are generally called "gasket factors". Note: Formula 1 also applies to many saturated vapours which condense at ambient temperatures. Formula 2 should be modified for highly toxic or dangerous gases by Increasing the gasket factor (to a maximum of about 8). With easily deformable flanges or where the available bolt load Is low, a softer material such as Klingertlex-A 10, Klingerflex-CB 1 or Kllngerpac may be advisable (low to moderate pressures only). 3 UTEX 001147 These formulae are not significantly de pendent on gasket thickness within the range 0.020" --(0.5-3 mm). There Is, however, a definite relationship between the degree of flange surface roughnesa and the minimum gasket thickness (see Table 1, page 12). Table 3 (pages 13 and 14) gives values of Pdmln for various values of P). Use Table 3a for liquids, 3b for gases. Inter mediate values can be interpolated. 1.

Using this value and tha already calculated value of the minimum gasket thlcknaes can be taken from Table 1 (page 12) without further calculation. The values given In Table 1 taka account of the roughness of both flange surfaces: as this Is not entirely necessary they contain a safety margin. Gasket thick- UTEX 001150 Maximum gasket rsurface stress -Minimum gasket area) 1. Use a larger gasket. This is only possible when the gasket dimen sions are not already fixed (e. g. by pipeline flange specifications such as BS, ASA, OIN etc). 2. Use a thinner material (and corre spondingly better flange finish). Too high a gasket aurfaca atraaa can cause leakage. Thla la because the gas ket loses the resilience needed to main tain its pressure against the flange sur faces. The surface stress on the gasket must never exceed the recommended maximum. For a given material the maximum per missible surface etress dependa mainly on the temperalure and the thickness. Thin materials withstand higher stresses than thick ones, cold conditions permit higher stresses than hot. For maximum permissible surface stress on Klinger materials see Tsble 2 (psge 12). 3. Use a material that withstands high er surface stresses a. g. wire-reinforced (Kllngerlt 1000) or spiral wound (Kllnger-Metallit). Maximum permis sible surface stress for Kllngerlt 1000 Is about 25 % above that of Kllngerlt, Kllngerlt 400 Universal and KlingerOlllt This complication Is dealt with In Practi cal Example 2 (page 10). With circular gaskets the minimum radial breadth can be found from Table 3 (pages 13 and 14).

This la to prevent diffusion of the medhim along the asbestos fibres.' | I UTEX 001151 What prevents blow-out? sfdering tha tensile strength at all: for this purpose tensile strength is Irrelevant Gaskets are held In position by friction, not by their tantile strength. Thfa Is demonstrated by the following calcula tion. Tha stability condition to resist blow-out Is that the frictional force exceeds the radial force caused by the Internal pres sure 1. a. frictional force > radial force 2ppd>(d| + b)b > pi*d|S where /i -- 0.1 -- coefficient of static friction * a - thickness of gaakat 2x0.1 p e(d| + b)b> p|cd|S 5d|S d > * b (d, + b) or Pd > P| (It d la large compared to b.) Pd In fact always exceeds 2A p| (formu lae 1 and 2, page 3). Also b Is never lass than 2 s, even In extreme cases. It follows that tha stability condition Is always fulfilled In a gasket assembly designed In accordance with the Klinger method. Only In the moat extreme ceaee Is e check-calculation of the frictional forces necessary. Note that the stability condition has been fulfilled without con- * v Is In fact generally about 0.4; even with smooth flanges It is never lees than 0.1. Gaskets should never be treated with oil or grease since this reduces the frictional force. If a non stick material Is required, Klinger Jointinge can be supplied with graphlted surfaces. fjl * i ? r r. ; UTEX 001152 Practical example no. 1 a# `inis example shows how the Klinger dimensioning method speeds up calcu lation.

Table 3a (liquids), co lumn 2, gives this as P dnu.n - 5,280 pal (ca. 370 kg/cm*) Step 2 Find the minimum thickness from Table 1 (page 12) for flange finish vo and p -- 5,250 psl. Since the value 5250 psl lies between two of the valuee given In the table use the next THICKER material I. a. 0.040 In (1 mm), using the black figures. Since however the flanges are turned, the lower valuee of Vii" or 0.75 mm (blue flguree) are permissible. Step 2 Find the mlnlrpum aseembty streea. Aa shown on page 5 this Is given by the formula: minimum assembly surface stress 1 - pa__ + pi rsar Note: b - radial breath - % (outside dla - Inside dla) d_ - mean diameter - (Inside dla. + b) Hence minimum assembly surface stress - 5280 + 2270 psl - 7220 pel (ca. 565 kg/cm*) Check It is essential to check that the calcula ted minimum assembly surface stress does not exceed the maximum permis sible stress for material of the selected thickness. Table 2 (page 12) shows that the maximum permissible surface stress (cold) on 0.040 in Kllngerlt la 20,000 pel (ca. 1,400 kp/cm*). This Is well above the calculated mlnumum assembly stress of 7,820 psl so the design Is acceptable. The actual assembly stress (and hence the surface stress under working pres sure) le normally chosen In excess of the minimum value and In such cases this higher stress must be checked against the permissible maximum. Practical Example No. 2 deals with a case In which the calculated minimum etreee exceeds the permissible maximum. UTEX 001153 Practical example no. 2 Thla example introduces the complication of a largo hydrostatic and thrust. Qhren A pressure vessel Is being designed as follows -- Internal diameter 1,000 mm The cover Is attached by flanges hav ing a raised face (gasket seating face) of radial breadth 20 mm. This surface will be milled lo a finish of 7. Medium Is cold gat, internal pressure (p() - 10 80 atm (ca 1,160 pal). Minimum gaaket thickness and minimum aaaembly strata, Slap 1 Using Table 3b (gas) tha minimum sur face stress at working pressure is found to be pd - 520 kp/cm* Slop 2 For minimum stress at working pressure Pw - 520 kp/cm1 and flange finish - 7, Table 1 gives minimum gasket thick ness - 3 mm. Step 3 Minimum assembly stress - pd-h, + Pi 4 bd - 520 + 960 - ca 1,500 kp/cm* Check Table 2 shows that for 3 mm material the maximum permissible surface stress is 800 kp/cm* (cold). Snoe the calcula ted minimum assembly surface stress Is higher than the permissible maximum tha design Is not acceptable. The poeslble remedies are new considered in turn: Larger gasket It the vessel Is still at the design stage this may be possible. To determine minimum radial breadth required Table 3b (cold gas). For 3 mm gasket thickness and pt - 80 atm this gives >Wi " 020 I.e. bmta- 1,000 x 0.20 - 200 mm If an even broader gasket Is used, a further check must be made that the resulting stress at working pressure does not fall below the required minimum. ' Thinner gaaket In this example the aimplest remedy would be to use smoother flanges and a thinner gasket capable of withstanding a higher surface atresa. Suppose the flanges are now machined to 77. Table 1 shows that the minimum gasket thickness Is now 0.75 mm. This material can accept surface streaaea up to 1,600 kp/cm* (cold) so the gasket design Is now satisfactory. Other materials Klinger gasket engineers will gladly gl advice In cases where neither of the above remedies proves practicable. UTEX 001154 General notes (^Lskat assemblies depend on many (ac tors that are outside the control of the gasket manufacturer. These recommen dations are therefore a guide -- not s guarantee of success. Here are some other factors to consider. Pipe expansions / contractions Thermal expansions of the pipeline ge nerate forces which can crush the gas ket Contractions can reduce the gasket surface stress below the minimum re quired for sealing. Pipe expansions and contractions must therefore be compen sated by suitable expansion devices. Flanges These should be even parallel and suffi ciently rigid not to be distorted by the bolt load. The bolts should be tightened (preferably with a torque spanner) work ing at diametrically opposite nuts alter nately. First turn all bolts to about halt Ihe recommended torque, then follow up to full assembly torque. Follow up the bolts about 4 hours later or 1 hour after the gasket reaches its working temperature. Flange finish Concentric grooving Is Ideal for high pressures. "Gramophone" finish (spiral Grooving) gives a continuous path for Wakage and Is not recommended, espe cially for gases. A finish equivalent to vv Is usually best for flat surfaces. , 11 UTEX 001155 Table 1 Minimum gasket thickness lor various surfaca straasaa (at working pressure) and dagraaa ol flango finish.
