RTJ Rubber Coated

Industrial Gaskets stocks an extensive range of Ring Type Joint – RTJ gaskets.  RTJ Rubber Coated is fully encased in a protective rubber coating, often nitrile.

Its primary purpose is to serve as a “test ring” for pressure testing, as the rubber coating minimizes damage and erosion to the delicate flange surfaces while providing an additional sealing benefit and corrosion resistance. RTJ Rubber Coated gaskets are reusable, making them a cost-effective solution for pressure testing applications in various industrial settings.  

Most standard sizes of RTJ Ring Type Joints can be supplied Rubber Coated. This type of Ring Type Joint or RTJ has three main functions.

• It is used in pressure or hydro testing to minimise damage to flanges
• The rubber contact points provide additional seals while protecting the flange surface
• It provides increased assurance against corrosion, which can occur between conventional Ring Type Joints and the engaged surfaces of the groove.
