Sealing issues on heat exchangers
Thread Content
Whose heat exchangers use metal seals? Is it easy to replace?
Some heat exchangers use metal seals, especially in applications that require resistance to high temperatures, high pressures, or corrosive environments. The difficulty of replacing metal seals depends on the design of the heat exchanger and the seal structure. Generally, replacing metal seals is more complex than replacing rubber or other non-metallic seals, and it may require specialized tools and technical support. If frequent maintenance and replacement are taken into account, a sealing structure that is easy to replace may be adopted in the design. It is recommended to contact the specific heat exchanger manufacturer for more detailed guidance on repair and replacement. .
When buying a heat exchanger, just buy a few extra metal gaskets as well

There are many, but for those with low pressure and moderate temperatures, those made of asbestos rubber or tetrafluoroethylene are also quite common
