In extreme environments of high temperature, high pressure, and corrosion, traditional sealing methods often fail. Enter conical sealing technology—where  metal meets metal in a direct, engineered union. This is the hardcore solution for absolute containment, and at  RUIHUA HARDWARE, we engineer this reliability into every critical connection.

Beyond Gaskets: The Paradigm Shift of Metal-to-Metal Contact

Unlike conventional gaskets or soft seals, the 24°/74° conical seal eliminates intermediate materials. It brings two precision-machined metal surfaces into direct, intimate contact. This isn't just connection; it's a calculated mechanical dialogue:
  • The unique  24° inner cone and  74° outer cone create an optimal stress distribution profile.

  • Direct metal-to-metal contact forms multiple, self-energizing sealing barriers.

  • Microscopic elastic deformation of the metal creates an "adaptive" seal that outperforms static solutions.

Absolute Reliability Under Extremes
Where temperature fluctuates violently, pressure spikes, or vibration is intense, polymeric seals degrade, creep, and fail. RUIHUA HARDWARE's conical metal seals maintain integrity from  -200°C to over 800°C, offering unmatched stability.
Zero-Leakage for Inherent Safety
In applications where failure is not an option—nuclear reactor coolant pumps, spacecraft propulsion, subsea Christmas trees—conical sealing provides near-absolute containment. Contact stress reaches up to 90% of material yield strength, ensuring microscopic imperfections are sealed.
A Revolution in Life-Cycle Cost
While installation demands precision, the service life of a conical seal often matches the equipment itself. This eliminates periodic seal replacement, dramatically reducing maintenance costs, downtime, and environmental risk.

24°/74°: The Geometry of Precision, The RUIHUA HARDWARE Standard

These angles are not arbitrary. They represent the precise intersection of fluid dynamics, material science, and thermal mechanics—a standard perfected by RUIHUA HARDWARE engineers.
  1. The 24° Inner Cone enables optimal axial-to-radial force conversion, turning bolt preload into efficient sealing pressure.

  2. The 74° Outer Cone creates the ideal stress distribution, preventing localized over-stress and plastic deformation.

  3. The Dual-Angle Synergy delivers a  self-energizing effect: as system pressure increases, so does the sealing contact force.

Engineered for the Most Demanding Applications: RUIHUA HARDWARE in Action

RUIHUA HARDWARE conical sealing solutions are trusted where performance is critical:
  • Energy & Power: Reactor primary circuit seals, supercritical power plant valves, LNG cryogenic connections.

  • Aerospace & Defense: Rocket engine propellant systems, satellite thruster fittings.

  • Oil & Gas: Subsea wellhead equipment, downhole tools, high-pressure manifolds.

  • Advanced Processing: High-pressure polyethylene reactors, toxic chemical valve stems.

More Than a Seal: A Philosophy of Inherent Reliability

The conical seal technology embodies an engineering philosophy:  simplify for reliability, calculate for precision, design for inherent safety. It reduces dependency on consumables and human intervention.
At  RUIHUA HARDWARE, we don't just manufacture seals; we provide  critical containment solutions. In an era demanding ultimate safety, environmental protection, and operational integrity, our 24°/74° conical seals stand as the definitive barrier—a rigid, metallic promise guarding the frontiers of industry.
