How New Age Scaffolding Looks at Sealing Stress
As a leading non-asbestos gasket manufacturer and supplier in Delhi and North India, New Age Scaffolding keeps sealing stress at the center of its application advice.
When customers approach us for gaskets—whether ready-cut gaskets, sheet gaskets, or spiral wound gaskets—our team considers:
- Operating pressure and temperature
- Nature of the fluid or gas (water, oil, steam, chemicals, etc.)
- Type of flanges and bolt arrangement
- Material of construction of the piping or equipment
- Safety and leakage tolerance levels
Instead of just asking, “Which gasket do you want?”, we focus on the right gasket + clamping combination.
How to Improve Sealing Reliability in Your Plant
Here are some practical tips to ensure better sealing performance:
Use the Right Gasket Material
Match the gasket to the temperature, pressure, and media. New Age Scaffolding offers non-asbestos, PTFE, rubber, and spiral wound gaskets tailored to different needs.
Check Flange and Surface Conditions
Clean, flat, and undamaged faces improve the efficiency of sealing stress.
Follow a Proper Bolt Tightening Pattern
Tighten bolts in a star or cross pattern in multiple passes to ensure uniform clamping.
Avoid Guesswork in Torque
Where possible, use torque wrenches and follow recommended torque values.
Work with a Knowledgeable Gasket Supplier
Rather than buying purely on price, choose a supplier who understands sealing stress and can advise on material and design.
