Before taking measures against electrolysis, let's confirm the identity of the enemy once again. Electrolysis is a phenomenon where metals corrode due to electrical actions, and there are mainly two types. First, galvanic corrosion, which is a representative of electrolysis. When dissimilar metals (e.g., carbon steel bolts on stainless steel flanges) come into contact through an electrolyte such as water or condensation, a tiny battery (galvanic cell) is formed. Next is stray current corrosion. This occurs when current (stray current) leaking from railway tracks (using direct current) or other electrical equipment flows into nearby underground metal pipes through the ground and causes severe corrosion at the exit point when it flows back out into the earth. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the PDF.

Leakage from gaskets in plant and factory piping flanges is a serious issue that directly leads to production stoppages, energy losses, and significant safety accidents. Remarkably, research shows that about two-thirds of all gasket-related troubles are caused by "poor installation." Among these installation issues, the overwhelming majority is due to "inadequate management of tightening force." In this article, we will thoroughly explain why "torque management" is essential for gasket sealing, covering the fundamental theory, the correct tightening procedures that can be practiced on-site starting tomorrow (in accordance with JIS B 2251), and specific examples of the three most common tightening failures (under-tightening, over-tightening, and uneven tightening) along with their countermeasures. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the PDF.

From industrial machinery to plant piping and building equipment, "rubber gaskets and packing" prevent fluid leaks and fill gaps, serving as extremely important components that support the performance and safety of equipment, despite being inconspicuous. However, even when grouped under the term "rubber," the types vary widely from natural rubber (NR) to nitrile rubber (NBR) and fluorine rubber (FKM), each possessing completely different characteristics (oil resistance, weather resistance, heat resistance, chemical resistance, mechanical strength). If this selection is incorrect, it can lead to serious problems such as "rubber swelling and leaking due to oil," "cracking due to ozone," or "hardening due to heat resulting in loss of sealing capability." In this article, we will thoroughly compare and explain the characteristics of nine major types of rubber materials, providing a "selection guide" to help you choose the right product for your application. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the PDF.

In November 2015, a significant regulation that overturned the conventional wisdom of high-temperature insulation in Japan's industrial sector was enacted. This is the "RCF Regulation (Revised Labor Safety and Health Act)." RCF (Refractory Ceramic Fiber), which once dominated as a substitute for asbestos, has become a legally regulated substance due to concerns about its carcinogenicity. As a result, the selection of sealing and insulation materials in high-temperature areas exceeding 1000°C now faces new challenges. This article will thoroughly explain the fundamental question of "What is the RCF Regulation?" as well as why RCF is regulated and why AES has been chosen as its alternative, while unraveling the history of insulation materials. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the PDF.

Based on the customer's drawing, we manufactured a large-diameter gasket with an outer diameter of φ548mm and an inner diameter of φ410mm from a 5mm thick NBR rubber sheet. First, we precisely cut the gasket body (with 16 φ27mm bolt holes on a P.C.D. of 510mm) and the ring-shaped parts using a water jet cutting machine. After that, we bonded the rings to both sides of the body, finishing it as a stepped seal gasket. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.

"Since it is a resin flange, it cannot be tightened with strong force." "There may be some distortion on the flange surface, and with a sheet gasket, the leakage does not stop." "While we want the elasticity of rubber in the chemical line, we also want to ensure chemical resistance." Such issues frequently arise in the sealing of piping flanges. In particular, with PVC piping and FRP piping that cannot withstand high tightening forces, as well as flanges that are glass-lined, it is not uncommon for rigid sheet gaskets to fail to provide sufficient sealing performance. What Daiko Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of industrial products, offers is the high-performance molded gasket "D-Packing," which has a unique cross-sectional shape. In this article, based on Daiko Co., Ltd.'s official comprehensive catalog, we will thoroughly explain why D-Packing can achieve "high sealing performance" with "low tightening force," the secrets of its structure, the differentiation between two types according to application, and the correct knowledge to maximize its capabilities. *For detailed content of the column, please refer to the related link.
