Reliable Pikotek Gaskets

The Pikotek VCS gasket, for instance, was originally constructed to serve as a sealing solution for electrical insulation of flanges for the Northern Slope in Alaska. After this initial application, it was discovered that the Pikotek gasket was a superior sealing gasket than anything on the market. After a great amount of testing, the device has become a staple for use among oil and gas companies throughout the world simply as a sealing gasket. The term “VCS” refers to Very Critical Seal.

Because of the patented dovetail groove, in which the spring-energized Teflon O-Ring sits, the Pikotek gaskets seal actually gets stronger as pressure increases. This ensures a proper seal in extreme environments where high pressure is experienced. This piece of equipment is also extremely adaptable. It is able to seal an RTJ Flange to a Raised Face flange.
