Sealing specification

Sealing load or required force of pressure

The following graphic chart shows the required force of pressure referring to the diameter of the sealing ring for different tube outside diameters and wall thick-nesses of the stainless tubing. For tubing made of Inconel 600 the indicated values have or be multiplied with factor 1.1 and for Inconel X-750 with factor 1.4.
