Gasket Search

Gaskets may be manually entered in DesignCalcs, however using the Gasket Search keeps the data consistent and correct. Custom gaskets may be added to the Gasket Database and then used within vessels and components.

When on the gasket tab, click the Gasket Search button to load the gasket selection dialog. Commonly available gaskets and gasket entries from Appendix 2 are listed on the Standard Gaskets tab. User-created custom gaskets are also available on the "Custom" tab of the gasket selection grid.

Gasket Selection Grid

To quickly find a specific gasket - or a gasket with certain properties - group, sort, and filter the grid data. Data can be grouped by any characteristic by dragging the column header into the area above the columns. Click on a column header to sort the data by that column in either ascending or descending order. Click the arrow on the right side of a column header to select data filtering criteria. Grouping, sorting, and filtering can be used in any combination.

The grid will retain any filters and the adjustments to column order and size. To reset the grid to the original default appearance, right click and select "Reset Default Layout."
