Are there large gaskets that can be reused, are heat-resistant, and can withstand certain pressures?

Detailed parameters: Temperature resistance: 800 degrees, pressure resistance: 0.3 Mpa, diameter: 6000 mm. Please advise!
Gaskets, for reuse? Being so frugal isn’t safe either
A reforming unit, with such high temperatures and diameter. Use a bimetallic self-sealing gasket. Produced in the south of Dongshan.
Don’t take risks; it’s not worth stopping operations to deal with a leak if it does occur.
Indeed, it is not recommended to reuse this gasket due to the high risk involved
Why reuse it? It is not recommended. For this temperature condition, there are two approaches for sealing: the conventional method uses metal gaskets or self-sealing metal gaskets. This sealing approach is relatively reliable in terms of protecting the flange and facilitating subsequent maintenance, but it does not require high standards regarding the surface quality of the flange nor a high level of safety. It is recommended to use toothed gaskets and thermalulite facings, which offer high temperature resistance, require less bolt tension, and provide excellent sealing performance. There are many successful applications of these in reforming projects; I hope we will have the opportunity for further discussion.
This device is turned on dozens of times a day.
Thank you! I’ll check again! :handshake
It’s not afraid of shutdowns, and it’s not worried even if there’s a slight leak!
Can it be reused? It’s turned on dozens of times a day!
This medium is a solid material, right? With such a large diameter, it’s hard to find any gasket that will work, let alone using them repeatedly! It is recommended to use a gasket-free seal (low pressure, no risk of leakage)
