Kit Components
Full-Face Gasket
The red rubber gasket covers the full flange face and provides the sealing surface between compatible mating flanges.
304 Stainless Steel Bolts & Nuts
Matching stainless steel bolts and nuts provide the clamping force required to secure the flange connection.
304 Stainless Steel Washers
Included washers help distribute bolt loading across the flange hardware during assembly.
Construction Details
Each set includes a full-face red rubber gasket designed to provide dependable sealing performance in compatible low-pressure flanged piping applications.
The included bolts, nuts, and washers are manufactured from 304 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance and dependable mechanical performance in general-purpose piping installations.
Packaging all required gasket and hardware components together helps simplify material selection, reduce procurement time, and minimize installation errors.
Why Choose 304 Stainless Steel Hardware?
Corrosion Resistance
- 304 stainless steel construction
- Better corrosion resistance than standard zinc-plated steel
- Suitable for many indoor and outdoor environments
- Useful in damp or moisture-prone locations
- Designed for long service life
Complete Matched Hardware
- Bolts included
- Nuts included
- Washers included
- Matched to nominal flange size
- Helps streamline flange assembly
Full-Face Red Rubber Gasket
Complete Flange Coverage
The full-face gasket extends across the flange face and includes bolt-hole openings to maintain alignment during installation.
Even Compression
Proper bolt tightening helps compress the gasket evenly around the flange joint for dependable sealing performance.
Typical Applications
Commercial & Building Systems
- HVAC piping
- Building water systems
- Commercial plumbing
- Mechanical room piping
- Flanged valve installations
Municipal & Industrial Systems
- Municipal piping
- Industrial utility systems
- Plant piping
- Flanged fittings
- General service piping
304 Stainless Steel vs. Zinc-Plated Steel Hardware
304 Stainless Steel
304 stainless steel provides strong corrosion resistance throughout the material and is often preferred where moisture, weather exposure, or corrosion resistance are important.
Zinc-Plated Steel
Zinc-plated steel uses a protective zinc coating over steel and is commonly used for general-purpose applications where moderate corrosion protection is sufficient.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in each set?
Each set includes one full-face red rubber gasket along with 304 stainless steel bolts, nuts, and washers.
What material is the gasket?
