Is the DOWTY metric metal-rubber gasket, AISI 316L steel, viton, type UDM suitable for high-pressure hydraulic flanged connections?

Yes. The DOWTY metric metal-rubber gasket, AISI 316L steel, viton, type UDM Format is suitable for high-pressure hydraulic flanged connections. Its construction combines an AISI 316L stainless steel washer for mechanical strength and corrosion resistance with a Viton (FKM) elastomer sealing element that provides excellent chemical compatibility, high-temperature resistance, and reliable elastic recovery under load. DOWTY metal-rubber gaskets are specifically designed for high-pressure applications; the metal core ensures flange load distribution and structural integrity while the rubber sealing lip ensures tightness against hydraulic fluids. Ensure correct gasket size and flange surface finish, follow the manufacturerâs torque and installation guidelines, and verify compatibility with the specific hydraulic fluid and operating temperature/pressure of your system.

Can DOWTY metric metal-rubber gasket, AISI 316L steel, viton, type UDM withstand extreme temperature cycles in high-pressure systems?

DOWTY metric metal-rubber gasket, AISI 316L steel, viton, type UDM Format can tolerate temperature cycling in highâpressure systems within certain limits: the AISI 316L steel washer provides robust mechanical strength and corrosion resistance for highâpressure duty, while the Viton sealing element offers good chemical compatibility and temperature resistance (typically â20Â°C to +200Â°C continuous, short peaks up to ~250Â°C). Repeated extreme temperature cycles near or beyond Vitonâs upper limit can cause hardening, loss of elasticity and reduced sealing performance, especially under high pressure. For reliable operation under extreme thermal cycling, validate application temperatures, pressure, media and cycling rate with manufacturer data and testing; consider higherâtemperature elastomers or full metal seals if cycles exceed Vitonâs capabilities.
