Gasket Selection Data

Gasket Selection Guide

Chemical compositions are listed in alphabetical order. Unless otherwise noted, temperatures are ambient. For chemicals or combinations not listed contact Victaulic for recommendations. DO NOT ASSUME THAT A SERVICE SIMILAR TO THE ONE LISTED CAN BE ACCOMMODATED WITH THE SAME GASKET.

The data and recommendations presented are based upon the best information available resulting from our held experience and laboratory testing by our own Engineering Department. In addition, we have incorporated the recommendations supplied by prime producers of basic copolymer materials and information furnished by leading molders of rubber products.

The information presented in this guide is general in scope and should be used only with this full knowledge and understanding. In unusual, critical severe services, full information should be referred to Victaulic.

Where possible, materials should be subjected to simulated service conditions to determine their suitability for the service intended. Furthermore, it should not be concluded that, in instances where a liner is not affected by several substances used alone, their combination will have no reaction on the liner. Caution should be exercised with explosive, inflammable or toxic fluids. All gasket recommendations are based on pressure and temperature limitations published by Victaulic. Borderline services always should be verified by Victaulic.

Where two gaskets are shown under Gasket Grade, both are acceptable under normal conditions for the service listed. For Gasket Grade details click here.

Gasket recommendations apply only to Victaulic gaskets. Recommendation for a particular service does not necessarily imply compatibility of the coupling housing, related fittings or other components for the same service.
These recommendations do not apply to rubber lined valves.
