Primary Air Duct - Slide Gate Seals

11/07/2010 5:16 PM

We are facing problem of Slide gate seal leakage in the primary air duct of the boiler due to seal warping.

Presently we are using 7 Nos of gate seals of 1mm thickness and material= SS316L in each gate.

Will usage of Hastalloy C-276 reduce the leakage? What is the cost of Hastalloy C-276 of thickness 1mm?

From this and your other post, it sounds like your boiler is in bad shape. I hope it is safe to operate.
