CYCLETIGHT® PITA®U.S. Patent #7,455,301ePTFE encapsulated corrugated 316 SS metal insert uses no glue. Complete chemical inertness with low minimum to seat stress and low torque loss. Zero process contamination with 2x blow-out resistance of other corrugated insert gaskets.
LoadLock™ U.S. Patent PendingExpanded PTFE & 316 SS metal tang laminate uses no glue. Chemical inertness, low seating stress, high load capacity, extreme blowout resistance.
CYCLETIGHT® Manway GasketU.S. Patent #6,824,140Engineered for general purpose railcar manways. Highly compressible expanded PTFE provides the broadest chemical range. Seals against uneven & rough surfaces. Dynamic response provided by 316ss insert compensates for railcar vibration and supports multiple re-use.
CargoTight™ Manway GasketU.S. Patent PendingNon-contaminating virgin PTFE complies with FDA 21 CFR 177.1550. V-Notch™ centers CargoTight™ on the manway nozzle. Engineered V-Notch™ and dynamic stainless steel spring core work together minimizing the effects of gasket relaxation.
VSP Technologies’ Engineers & Specialists are recognized experts in the industry. Our employees currently have 14 patents for fluid-sealing products, with more pending.

OPRA™ U.S. Patent #6,682,081One piece reduced area gasket design from any sheet type gasket material for all lightly loaded flanges; FRP, PVC, PVDF, Cast Iron, & API manways. Reduced area allows for 20-50% lower torque than conventional full face gaskets. Standard designs for B16.5 flanges or designed specifically for non standard flanges.
RAFF™U.S. Patent PendingReduced area full face, proprietary low creep ePTFE sealing & non-rotational ring design safeguards against flange breakage while sealing with available bolt load. Designed for low bolt load FRP flanges.
AB-326 Anti Buckling Spiral Wound U.S. Patent #5,964,468 (Garlock Edge)Prevents radial buckling without problematic or costly inner rings. One spiral wound gasket for all size, type and pressure class flanges. Designed to seat at 5,000 psi vs conventional outer ring gaskets that often require more than 10,000 psi. Available with flexible graphite, expanded PTFE or Inpherno filler construction.
Checkmate™Superior engineered interference fit jointing technology replaces antiquated “Dove-Tail” designs for sectioned gaskets. Produces a tight torturous leak path for all media. Tightest sealing sectioned gasket with mechanically rigid joints.
Torq-Kit™ Pipe Code Compliance KitGasket, studs, nuts, and washers in exact conformance to your plant specifications. Assembly instruction, torque guidance, lubrication and flange ID tags, ensure required performance/reliability is achieved.
