Flange Isolation Gaskets and KitsDefender® Flange Isolation Gaskets
The Defender sealing/isolating gasket system is designed for extreme, high reliability sealing and electrical isolation critical service applications. Manufactured with a 316 stainless steel core retainer and laminated on both sides with high strength laminates, the Defender gasket is resistant to deforming under load and is used when electrical isolation and corrosion control are required on pipes containing gas, natural gas, oil and other hydrocarbon based medias up to 392ºF (200ºC). Available for flat face, raised face and ring type joint flanges, the Defender gasket is an engineered solution for trouble-free operation that eliminates costly leaks and provides a solution for fugitive emissions.
The Defender kit simplifies product ordering by pairing this gasket with isolation sleeves and washers to make a fully isolated flanged connection.
