RIGFLEX™ FP

RIGFLEX™ FP, Reverse Integrity Gasket, is designed to suit raised-face flanges (such as those specified in ASME B16.5)

RIGFLEX™ FP is a Reverse Integrity Gasket designed to allow asset operators not to pressure a whole pipeline when they only want to check the integrity of a specific bolted connection

Reverse Integrity Gaskets empower asset operators to pressurise individual connections post-reassembly and controlled tightening. This localised testing approach eliminates the need for pressure-testing the entire pipeline. The advantages of adopting Reverse Integrity Testing include:

  • Reduced downtime by bypassing the necessity to pressurise the entire system, thus avoiding potential issues elsewhere on ageing assets.
  • Enhanced Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) standards. Human interaction with potentially hazardous pressurised systems is minimised by eliminating the need for comprehensive pressure testing.
  • Significant cost savings stemming from reduced time and resources required for pressure testing an entire system.

 

The RIGFLEX™ FP comes equipped with dual Flexpro™ seals featuring Corriculite® facing. Corriculite® has demonstrated effectiveness in preventing galvanic corrosion on flange faces, enhancing reliability for the operator and contributing to reductions in fugitive emissions.

RIGFLEX™ FP comes complete with a 316 Stainless Steel core as standard. Other materials are available upon request.
