Understanding Pipe Flange Gaskets
Pipe flange gaskets are the most common type of gasket, typically circular and available with or without bolt holes, depending on your requirements. Two of the most crucial dimensions for a flange gasket are the inner diameter (ID) and outer diameter (OD), ensuring a correct fit for your application.
To measure these dimensions:
- Use a tape measure or ruler.
- Place the measuring tool edge to edge over the gasket face and note the measurements.
For gaskets with bolt holes, it’s important to measure the gap between opposite holes accurately. Depending on the gasket size, a digital calliper provides the most precise reading, but a tape measure or ruler can also be used.
To calculate the pitch circle diameter (PCD):
- Measure from the inside of one hole to the inside of the opposite hole.
- This method assumes equal hole diameters.
