The Durlon®Style RX ring joint has a unique self-sealing action. The outside levels of the ring make the initial contact providing a seal against the grooves outer surfaces. As the internal pressure increases, so does the gasket loading stress against the groove thus improving the gaskets sealing characteristics.
Design features of the Style RX gasket make it more resistant to shock load, test pressure shock, and drilling vibration.
Style RX ring joints are completely interchangeable with standard Style R groove designs. Care should be taken when interchanging these styles as Style RX gaskets are taller and will add length to the finished assembly.
Durlon® RTJ Characteristics
All gaskets are completely identified with low-stress permanent markings indicating style, ring number, material, and applicable standard
All gaskets fully comply wit the ASME B16.20 standard and the API spec 6A (where applicable)
All materials are fully traceable and documentation can be supplied upon request
Material hardness is carefully controlled which ensures a good seal without damaging the surfaces of the flanges
RTJ gaskets can withstand aggresive chemicals and temperatures up to 1,000°C with properly selected metal
All gaskets have a thin protective coating to eliminate oxidation effects due to atmospheric contact
