ASME B16.20:2017 pdf free download – Metallic Gaskets for Pipe Flanges
GR-1 SCOPE
This Standardcovers materials, dimensions, tolerances, and markings for metal ring-joint gaskets, spiral-wound metal gaskets, metal-jacketed gaskets, and grooved metal gaskets with covering layers. These gaskets are dimen- sionally suitable for use with flanges described in refer- ence flange standards ASME B16.5, ASME B16.47, API Specification 6A, and ISO 10423.
GR-2 QUALITY SYSTEMS
Requirements relating to the product manufacturers’ quality s ys tem p ro grams are des crib ed in Nonmandatory Appendix A.
GR-3 REFERENCES

GR-4 RELEVANT UNITS
This Standard states values in both SI (Metric) and U.S. Customary units. These systems of units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the U.S. Customary units are shown in parentheses. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, it is required that each system of units be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems constitutes nonconformance with the Standard.
