Metal Jacketed
Gasket Manufacturer

At Steel Icon Stainless Pvt. Ltd., we specialize in manufacturing high-performance metal jacketed gaskets, designed for use in high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments where conventional non-metallic gaskets may not provide sufficient performance. These gaskets feature a soft filler core usually graphite, mica, or ceramic enclosed within a metallic jacket that offers enhanced structural strength, chemical resistance, and thermal integrity.

Metal jacketed gaskets are ideal for applications in heat exchangers, flanged joints, boiler manways, autoclaves, valves, and pressure vessels. They are widely used in industries such as petrochemical, marine, refineries, and power generation.

Why Choose Metal Jacketed Gaskets?

  • High Temperature and Pressure Resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 900°C and pressure ratings up to 250 bar, ensuring reliable performance in extreme conditions.

  • Durability and Flexibility: Combines the compressibility of soft fillers with the durability of metal jackets for a versatile and effective sealing solution.

  • Ideal for Uneven Flange Faces: Perfect for sealing uneven flange faces and narrow sealing surfaces, ensuring a tight seal in challenging conditions.

  • Custom Designs Available: Custom designs are available for segmental, oblong, and multi-pass gaskets to meet specific application requirements.

  • Industry Standards Compliance: Conforms to ASME, DIN, and BS standards, making it ideal for heat exchanger service and other critical applications.
