Ring Type Joint 

Ring Type Joint 

Ring Type Joint gaskets from ARW Sealing Solution are precision‑machined metallic sealing rings engineered for high‑pressure, high‑temperature flange connections in critical services such as oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation. Designed to fit into specially machined grooves in RTJ flanges, they provide a reliable metal‑to‑metal seal that maintains integrity under severe operating conditions.

Key Properties

  • Design: Solid metallic ring, oval or octagonal profile, that seats in a flange groove and is compressed by bolt load to create a tight, metal‑to‑metal seal; available in R, RX, and BX styles to suit different pressure ratings and flange designs.
  • Materials: Manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steels, and special alloys (Inconel, Duplex, etc.) to match service media and hardness requirements, ensuring compatibility with flange materials and operating conditions.
  • Temperature Range: Suitable for elevated temperatures typically encountered in hydrocarbon and process applications, supporting continuous operation in high‑temperature, high‑pressure systems (exact range dependent on alloy selection).
  • Pressure Rating: Developed for medium to very high pressures in line with API and ASME RTJ flange classes, delivering secure sealing performance where conventional soft gaskets are not sufficient.
  • Sealing Performance: High integrity, blow‑out‑resistant seal with excellent resistance to pressure cycling, vibration, and thermal fluctuations, ideal for critical joints where leakage cannot be tolerated.

Types & Variants

 

 

Standards

  • Manufactured to common international RTJ standards (e.g., API/ASME RTJ flange dimensions and groove designs) for compatibility with standard ring‑type joint flanges.
  • Available in a range of sizes and ratings to match typical piping, valve, and pressure vessel connections.

Applications

  • High‑pressure oil and gas pipelines and wellhead connections.
  • Refinery and petrochemical process lines.
  • High‑temperature steam and power generation systems.
  • Critical bolted joints in onshore and offshore installations.
