These gaskets are similar in construction to Style without inner & outer ring , with outer ring, with the addition of pass partitions designed for use in shell and tube heat exchangers. The partitions are typically supplied in double-jacketed construction, using the same material as the spiral wound component.

Partition strips can be soft-soldered, tack-welded, or silver-soldered to the spiral wound element. The double-jacketed partition strips are generally slightly thinner than the spiral wound component to reduce the bolt load required for proper gasket seating.
This gasket is specifically designed for Hydrofluoric (HF) acid applications. It features a Monel and PTFE spiral winding, complemented by a carbon steel centering ring and a PTFE inner ring.
The LS_LE style gasket is the ideal choice when high density and low emissions are critical. This enhanced spiral wound design includes essential components such as a carbon steel guide ring and a stainless steel inner ring.
Inward buckling of spiral wound gaskets remains a concern in the industry. Various industry committees are actively working to improve standards to address this issue. Some end users avoid using inner rings due to cost or bore intrusion. To meet this need, We offer LS_AB style gasket.
