* Temperature and pressure represent maximum values and should not be used simultaneously. They are given only for
guidance, since they depend not only on the type of gasket material but also on the assembly conditions. Very
important factors are: thickness of material, nature of service medium, type of flange, surface stress. Steam application
requires special consideration.
