Minimum required gasket stress at internal pressure 40 bar
Friction coefficient µG
The friction coefficient between gasket and flange surface was determined for different types of gasket materials in an ESA research project.
The gasket Elastikdichtung mit Diffusionssperre - Edelstahlwellring - SIGRAFLEX® Emaille-Einlage, Profil ED30, WS 7110/1.4571/3825, Dichtungsdicke 6,5 mm, Rev. 02 can be assigned to the categorie 2 : "Gaskets based on filled PTFE". Therefore, the following friction coefficients can be considered:
