Tyton Sit Gaskets
Tyton Sit Gaskets are a type of gasket used in pipeline systems, particularly in water and wastewater applications. The Tyton gasket is a flexible rubber ring with a trapezoidal cross-section, designed to fit into the groove of Tyton joints, which are commonly used in ductile iron pipes.
These gaskets play a crucial role in ensuring the integrity of the pipeline system by providing a watertight seal between pipe sections. They are known for their durability, flexibility, and resistance to various chemicals and environmental conditions.
The installation of Tyton Sit Gaskets typically involves placing the gasket into the groove of the pipe joint, where it is compressed when the pipe sections are connected. This compression creates a tight seal that prevents leakage of fluids from the pipeline.
Overall, Tyton Sit Gaskets are widely used in municipal water and sewer systems, as well as in industrial applications, where reliability and longevity are essential.
