Gasket Effective Dia For Spiral Wound Metallic Gaskets Per B16.20 For ASME B16.5 Flanges

This document provides calculations for determining the diameter of metallic spiral wound gaskets for ASME B16.5 flanges. It defines terms like gasket width, basic gasket seating width, and effective gasket contact surface seating width. Tables are included that show gasket dimensions like outside diameter, inside diameter, and width for different nominal pipe sizes based on ASME B16.5 ratings of 150#, 300#, and 600#. Formulas are provided to calculate the basic gasket seating width, effective gasket seating width, and gasket diameter based on these dimensions and ratings.

Gasket Diameter Calculation for Metallic Spiral Wound Gaskets for ASME B16.

5 Flanges

Reference: ASME Section VIII Division 1 ( Edition 2008 )


Gasket Dimensions are in inches

Mean Gasket width N = (Gasket O.D - Gasket I.D)/2


Gasket I.D & O.D to be obtained from ASME B16.20 ,Table 9. (Edition 1998)

Basic Gasket Seating b0 = N/2

Effective Gasket or joint contact surface seating width b = b0 , if b0 <= 0.25


= Cb(b0)^0.5 , if b0 > 0.25
(Cb conversion factor = 0.5 for US customary calculation)

Gasket Diameter G
G = mean diameter of the gasket contact face, if b0 is less than or equal to 1/4
i.e: G = (O.D + I.D)/2

G = outside diameter of gasket contact face less 2b , if b0 is greater than 1/4


i.e: G = O.D - 2b
