Nickel 200 Gaskets for Cyrogenic Applications

Q:Hi, I’m interested in the JG/JP gasket for a cryogenic application. Can you recommend a material with the highest ductility as I’m concerned about the gasket becoming too brittle?
A: To protect your process from loss of ductility, I would suggest using a combination of 316 SS and Graphite for Cryo service with the JP/JG gaskets. Nickel 200 gaskets would also be another option to prevent loss of ductility and corrosion, and is ideal when handling liquid Oxygen and Nitrogen.
