Type I - Round bulb, with the tail extension of the cover extending radially from the periphery of the core m
5、aterial. Type II - Rectangular bulb, with the tail extension of the cover parallel to the longer side of the rectangular core. 3. SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS 3.1 Materials. Unless otherwise specified herein or in the applicable engineering drawing (AED), the materials used shall be in accordance with th
6、e manufacturers material specifications/drawings. The use of recovered material made in compliance with regulatory requirements is acceptable providing that all requirements of this CID are met (see 4). 3.1.1 Thread.

Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-52492A 2 3.1.2 Cover cloth. Cover cloth shall be aramid/glass wire reinforced cloth with silicone rubber on the inside
8、, and coated on the outside with aluminum pigment silicone compound. The base fabric shall be plain weave aramid/glass cloth. Reinforcing wire shall be Inconel or stainless steel of the 300 series and wire diameter shall be American Wire Gage 36 (0.12 millimeter (mm) dia.). The cloth weight shall be
9、 0.90 kg per square meter (m2) (maximum). Wrap and fillings yarns shall be strands of wire and fiberglass completely covered by aramid fibers. The yarn shall be not less than 50 percent (%) aramid. The wire shall not show in the yarn or cloth. The inner and outer coating shall be silicone rubber Gra
10、de 5GE605A19B37E026F19Z of ASTM D2000. The value of Z shall be the minimum adhesion to the base fabric of 17.5 N per centimeter (cm) of width. 3.1.3 Cover coatings. When coatings are integrated into the weave of the cloth so that separation of tensile tongue is impossible, adhesion values are assume
11、d to exceed 26.3 N per cm. The inner and outer coating shall be complete and continuous. No exposed yarns shall be visible through the coating. The coating shall be smooth without blisters or depressions. The cloth after coating shall have the following properties: a. Thickness: Not less than 1.27 m
12、m b. Weight: 1.575 0.16 kg per m2c. Tear strength: Not less than 89 N 3.2 Design and construction. Seals shall be constructed to conform to the dimensions and form shown in the AED (see 7.2). These seals shall consist of a core of the shape specified (see 2) and a cover (see 3.1.2). The cover shall
13、overlap the core. Its edge shall extend to form the tail. 3.2.1 Core of the bulb. The core of the bulb shall be constructed of Inconel alloy or corrosion resisting stainless steel of the 300 series with not less than 16% chromium and 6% nickel. The filler shall be enclosed in a tubular mesh cover of
14、 the same material. The configuration and consistency of the filler, diameter of wire and size of mesh in filler and mesh cover shall be such as to provide the compression and recovery characteristics specified in 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6. When specified in the applicable drawings (see 7.2), the mesh cover
15、shall be drawn over the cut ends of the core, and engaged upon itself in such a way as to form a bound end without distorting the bulb of the seal. 3.2.2 Tail section. The tail section shall be furnished with bolt holes or with cut-outs, as specified in the AED. Sewing shall be of lock stitches and
16、shall count not less than 3 nor more than 5 stitches per running 25 mm. Sewing shall consist of two rows. One stitch line shall be closely adjacent to the core, the other stitch line shall be approximately 6 mm in from the edge of the tail. Bolt holes or cut-outs, when specified, shall not penetrate
17、 the stitching adjacent to the bulb. 3.2.3 Length. Length of seals without bolt holes or cut-outs shall not exceed 7.5 meters (m). 3.2.4 Bulb and tail. The dimensions of bulb and tail (overall width) for type I and type II seals shall be as specified in table I. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo repro

With the bulb of the finished seal compressed to 80% of its original nominal size between flat steel plates, the seal shall withstand an 1100 degrees Celsius (C) flame for 15 minutes with no penetrat
20、ion of flame beyond the sealing point and no flame remaining in the seal for more than 5 seconds after removal of the flame source. 3.4 Load compression. The seals shall be capable of being compressed under load and recovered within the load requirements and recovery limits specified in tables II an
21、d III at 24 C and 177 C, respectively. This shall be verified by applying to the type I seals the loads in an axial direction and for the type II seals by applying the loads parallel to the tail and with the tail held down. 3.5 Compression recovery at 24 C. The seals shall recover to the percentage
22、of the original bulb size after 15 minutes subsequent to being compressed for one minute. 3.6 Compression recovery at 177 C. The seals shall recover to the percentage of the original bulb size following each phase when subjected to the test as described below. The seals shall be compressed at the ap
23、plicable percentage of compression specified in table III, for 16 1/2 hours (phase 1) and for 5 hours (phase 2). The seals shall be allowed to cool for 15 minutes at ambient temperature following each phase. Following 60 5 minutes rest, phase 1 and phase 2 shall be repeated for a total of 4 cycles.
24、3.7 Tear strength. The cover shall exhibit a minimum tear strength of 48.9 N before heat test, when tested in accordance with the requirements of ASTM D2261. 3.8 Ozone Depleting Substances. Avoid using all EPA Class 1 Ozone depleting substances. 3.9 Identification markings. Unless otherwise specifie
25、d in the AED, identification markings shall be permanent and legible and shall include, as a minimum, the manufacturers CAGE code and part number and the AED part number (see 7.2).
