Gasket Type: TYPE E - Type E gaskets are for full face protection of both flange faces Specify The Following: (How to Order) ● Specify Gasket Type: D, E, or F. Recommended Installation Procedure: ● Verify that the installation kits contain the material specified and the contents are not damaged. ● Clean and inspect pipe flange faces and apply lubricant to all threads.
● Install the gasket and align the flanges and gasket so the bolts will be centered.
● Use alignment pins in two diametrically opposite bolt holes whenever possible to assure proper alignment of flanges and gasket.
● Insert insulating sleeves into the bolt holes taking care not to use force which could damage the sleeve material.
● Insert the bolt with both insulating washers against the flanges followed by the steel washer and nut.
● Tighten two diametrically opposite bolts to 30% to total torque.
● Replace the two alignment pins with bolts and tighten the remaining bolts to 30% of the total torque value.
● Tighten all bolts to 50% and the to 100% of final torque value.
● Bolts should be of sufficient length to extend through the nut approximately 1/4".● Specify Single or Double Washer set
● Specify Sleeve Material: Polyethylene, Phenolic, Mylar, or Nomex.
● Specify Flange Size and Pressure Rating
