ENGINEERING WEIGHT REFERENCE
Spiral Wound Gasket Weight Data
Spiral wound gasket weight is influenced by diameter, winding geometry, metallic and filler materials, pressure-class geometry and the presence of inner or outer rings. Use weight information as a planning reference and confirm final values for the specified construction.

What Changes the Weight of a Spiral Wound Gasket
Two gaskets with the same nominal pipe size can have different weights when their pressure class, standard, winding width or ring configuration differs. Inner and outer rings add metallic mass, and changes in material density can also affect the final value.
For estimating, logistics and handling, the correct gasket style and dimensional reference should therefore be identified before a weight is assigned. A generic value should not replace the weight for the actual ordered configuration.
How to Use Weight Information
Weight data is useful for shipment planning, package estimates, inventory records and engineering documentation. When a project requires certified or purchase-order-specific mass information, use the final approved gasket construction rather than an early planning estimate.
Start with the dimensional standard and product style, then confirm the material combination. This sequence keeps the weight reference aligned with the geometry that will actually be manufactured.
