Description
Style BX
Durlon® Style BX gaskets have a pitch diameter slightly larger than the groove pitch diameter. This allows for initial contact to be made on the outside of the ring, pre-loading the gasket which creates a pressure energized seal. This style of RTJ features a pressure passage to enable trapped pressure to balance itself in the joint and can only be used with API BX flanges.
