Gaskets
SHEET PACKINGS:
Victor materials are available in various thicknesses and in the following forms for use in packing joint3:
pressure, and industrial conditions.
To meet specific requirements Victor gaskets are fabricated from the following materials used singly or assembled in various combinations:
Copper Zinc Aluminum RM (Special metal
for refrigeration
use) Lead
Brass
,
Ingot Iron
'
Steel
Monel
Asbestos
Graphited Asbestos
Victopac (Com
pressed Asbestos)
Wire-Woven Asbes tos
Victorite (fibrous) Manila paper Cork (Composition)
Rubber
Constructions:
Metal Enclosed: Special design gaskets such as cylinder head; annular types with flat, round, or oval cross sections, single jacketed, double jacketed, French
Victorite ftreaUd fibrous packing) Victopac (Compressed Asbestos)
Wire Woven Asbestos Copper Asbestos, superior mQl-board Asbestos rope Cork (composition) Rubber Manila paper

Applications: Victor materials are supplied as finished gaskets or in sheet form for the maintenance of leak-proof connections in lines, pumps and chamberscarrying gases and liquids such as the following:
Air
Alcohol Alum Ammonia
Brine Caustics Cyanides
Ethyl Chloride Exhaust Fumes Gas Gasoline Lye Methyl Chloride
Oil (hot and cold) Tar
Steam (high plea
sure, low pressure, superheated and; saturated)
Sodium Sulphate Sulphur Dioxide Water (hot and cold) .
(outer edge open), inverted French (inner edge open), corrugated, one-way center flange for guide, two-way center flange for guide; flange types (with bolt .holes).
Solid metal: Annular (plain or corrugated), flange types, washers, shims, special shapes and designs.
Reinforced Gaskets: For use on internal com bustion motors with high compression and those in tended for heavy duty service where extremes of heat, pressure or other unusual conditions are encountered, Victor has devised, developed and made available a number of exclusive designs of metal enclosed, reinforced gaskets. Victoloy Seamless (the flanged bottom layer at combustion openings is backed on the inside with an extra metallic flange); Double Overlap (both the top metal layer and the bottom metal layer are flanged around combustion openings, giving double protection);
VICTOR QUALITY AND WORKMANSHIP:
Superior quality is inherent with Victor products,.! Raw materials meet strict specifications, machine production is under constant surveillance and finished, products pass rigid inspections. Each Victor gaske requires special tools made with skill and exactness.. The master tools of all are dies, intricately contrived, ac curately built and gauge-tested. Not one, but four o' more pairs of steel dies comprise the die set for a single metal-enclosed gasket pattern such as used in the automobile cylinder head. Different blanking dies are needed for the copper layers and the asbestos layer. There's another set for forming and still another for binding the assembled layers together. Once the'gasket is assembled and closed, no machining or other alteration is possible--hence the need for accuratedies. To preserve authenticity and insure accuracy,! Victor designs, builds and maintains its entire equips?' ment of dies representing an enormous investment Victor gaskets are supreme in accuracy and workman-!, ship and are regarded as standard the world over.
Triple Overlap (both top and bottom metal layers are
flanged around opening and an extra metallic flange is also provided); IFire Insert Seamless (the flanged bottom layer is backed by a seamless welded wire ring or in some cases a blanking from thick metal); Special designs including combinations of these types and other effective constructions.
CONSULTATION AND TECHNICAL SERVICE:
The Victor Company is devoted exclusively to the, making of gaskets and gasket materials. In itstwenty years' experience there has been accumulated, a large fund of valuable information which is freely available to gasket users. When gasket problems are' encountered the Victor Company is always glad to assist.'.
