The 100% leak-proof performance of your transformer will not only ensure high profitability but also ensure high demand for your products. Ensuring the 100% leak-proof performance of your transformers is what we have committed ourselves to for more than a decade. Our Research and Innovation team has come up with many tests which ensure the long […]

This is one of the most common questions we are asked as experts in the field of Transformer gaskets. There is a phenomenon known as Creep Relaxation common to all kinds of gaskets. This means that every gasket when subjected to constant pressure will lose some of its original thickness fairly quickly. It is completely natural for […]

This question is important because we often find that leakage in transformers happens when gaskets are not cut properly leading to a lot of monetary loss to transformer manufacturers. The following should be kept in mind while cutting gaskets: Use a good quality cutter or die to cut the desired shape. Make sure that the […]

As a leading manufacturer of rubber cork in India, this question comes to us often. No one wants to use an expired product or a product whose effectiveness has decreased. The shelf life of a gasket will depend on its storage conditions and the ingredients which have been used to manufacture it. – Gaskets should […]

Most of us are hard-pressed on reducing the cost of raw materials that we use in our end products to be competitive in the market. The good news is that using a good gasket reduces your product cost in the following ways: Product Life-cycle cost: Electrical transformers are equipment that ideally should have a life […]

To answer simply, the selection between these two primarily depends on the type of flange where the gasket will be put. Nitrile Bonded Rubber Cork gaskets: These are used in places where the flanges or mating surfaces are flat in nature. Examples are flat flanges on a tank cover (Curb) of a transformer, flanges of […]

How do gaskets work in an Electrical Transformer? Primarily the gasket between two flat flanges follows the 3rd law of Newton and applies equal and opposite force on the flanges in proportion to the compressive pressure on it. This reverse force by the gasket fills up any gap or undulations in the flange and thus […]

Do you know that more than 70% of Distribution Transformer failures in the field is directly or indirectly related to failure of gaskets? Gasket is one of those items which cannot be tested for long life performance at the time of transformer manufacturing, unlike components like conductors, CRGO core, radiators etc. It has been observed […]
