Value Collection 3194784 Flange Gasket 2-1/2 in Pipe

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 3194784 is a flange gasket designed for use with 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe size systems. It features an inside diameter of 3-1/4 inches and an outside diameter of 5-1/8 inches, providing a reliable sealing surface between mating flanges. Constructed from carbon steel and stainless steel, this gasket is rated for a wide temperature range from -440 degrees F to 850 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding industrial and mechanical piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of gasket during flanged pipe assembly or during maintenance service on existing flange connections.

This gasket is used in flanged piping systems where a secure, leak-resistant seal is required at the joint. It is appropriate for residential and commercial mechanical systems, as well as industrial process piping where 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe size flanges are present. The carbon steel and stainless steel construction supports use in a range of fluid and gas handling applications subject to elevated or sub-zero temperatures. Installers working on HVAC hydronic systems, plumbing distribution lines, or process piping will find this gasket suited to standard flange assembly work.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation flange gasket for 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe size flanged connections in plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and industrial piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or ASME piping codes. Shut down system pressure and drain or isolate the line before removing any existing flange hardware. Inspect flange faces for damage or corrosion before seating the new gasket, and torque flange bolts evenly in a cross-pattern sequence per the applicable piping standard. Do not reuse a compressed gasket once it has been removed from service.
