LEADING METAL GASKETS MANUFACTURER, EXPORTER & SUPPLIER
Manufacturer, Exporter & Supplier of Copper-Nickel, Stainless Steel & Alloy Industrial Gaskets
Precision Spherical-Profile Sealing for Ultra-High-Pressure Pipelines & Process Systems
Lens Ring gaskets are precision-machined solid metal sealing rings with a distinctive convex spherical (lens-shaped) cross-section profile. The lens ring gasket seals through line contact — the convex spherical profile contacts the matching concave conical seat in the flange face at a single circular line of contact, concentrating sealing stress to a very high level even at relatively low bolt loads.
Lens Ring gaskets are widely used in high-pressure gas and oil pipeline systems, compressor stations, and instrumentation connections where operating pressures may reach several hundred bar — and are available machined from any of our seven premium alloys.
Available Materials: Copper-Nickel · Stainless Steel · Copper · Brass · Inconel · Monel · Hastelloy
Sunflex Metalloy manufactures Lens Ring Gaskets in seven premium alloys, so you can match the gasket material precisely to your process fluid, temperature, and corrosion requirements.
Copper-Nickel (Cu-Ni 90/10 / 70/30) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering outstanding seawater & biofouling resistance, with a maximum operating temperature of 400°C and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–2500 — making it the benchmark choice for marine, offshore & desalination duty.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
Stainless Steel (SS 304 / 316 / 316L) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering excellent general & chemical corrosion resistance, with a maximum operating temperature of 600°C and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–2500 — making it the most versatile, cost-effective all-round choice.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
Copper (C11000 / ETP) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering good ductility & soft-sealing conformability, with a maximum operating temperature of 250°C and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–1500 — making it low-to-medium pressure sealing with excellent conductivity.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
Brass (CZ108 / C36000) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering moderate corrosion resistance, good machinability, with a maximum operating temperature of 200°C and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–900 — making it economical general-duty & instrumentation sealing.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
Inconel (600 / 625 / 718) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering exceptional oxidation & high-temperature resistance, with a maximum operating temperature of 1000°C+ and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–2500 — making it extreme heat, cryogenic & superalloy-grade service.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
Monel (400 / K-500) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering outstanding resistance to acids & seawater, with a maximum operating temperature of 480°C and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–2500 — making it hydrofluoric acid & chemical processing duty.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
Hastelloy (C276 / C22) is one of the most requested materials for lens ring gaskets, offering extreme resistance to highly corrosive/oxidizing media, with a maximum operating temperature of 1000°C+ and a typical pressure rating of Class 150–2500 — making it the premium choice for the harshest chemical environments.
Best For: Ultra-high-pressure gas and oil pipelines · Compressor station flanges · High-pressure instrumentation connections · Subsea and wellhead applications
