Thread Content

The operating pressure of the liquefied gas tank is less than or equal to 1.5 MPa. The sealing surface of the manhole flange is of the MFM type; according to the design requirements, the gasket to be used is of type HG20610, category B, with DN600 and PN2.5 specifications. The dimensions of the standard gasket are: D1=636 mm, D2=649 mm, D3=675 mm, D2-D1=13 mm, and D3-D1=39 mm; The dimensions of the new gaskets purchased are: D2-D1=16mm, D3-D1=20mm; the outer diameter remains the same for both the old and new gaskets! Can it be used?

It is best to use qualified, standard gaskets for pressure vessels
