The values for Compressed Non-asbestos Fiber Sheets defined in Appendix G to JIS B 8265 can be applied to m and y values of High Performance Non-asbestos Sheets.Thickness
(mm)Gasket factor
“m”Minimum design seating stress
“y”(N/mm2)3.0 2.00 11.0 1.5 2.75 25.5 1.0 3.50 44.8 - Recommended Tightening stress(MPa)
The recommended tightening stress is the pressure required under standard conditions without consideration to the endforce due to internal
fluid. It is the stress on the contact area of the gasket
