As shown in fig. 1, the pipelines are pipelines in a flange connection mode and are connected together through a stud 2 and a hexagon nut 3, and the pipelines can be other products in a flange connection mode. An annular sealing groove is arranged in the flange 1. As shown in fig. 2, the metal sealing gasket ring 4 is arranged in the flange sealing groove, the cross section of the metal sealing gasket ring is in an octagonal shape, and the outer ring 6 of the stud bolt is in interference fit with the sealing groove under the action of 2 hexagon nuts 3, so that effective sealing at the flange connecting interface is realized. In order to improve the sealing reliability of the flange connection and prolong the maintenance period, the metal sealing gasket ring 4 is generally made of carbon steel or stainless steel with lower hardness. The sealing mode has the advantages of long maintenance interval and reliable performance, and is widely and long-term applied to occasions of oil gas, refining, transmission and the like.
The existing metal sealing gasket ring 4 has some problems to be solved. Due to the working principle of flange connection, in order to realize sealing, the metal sealing gasket ring 4 must be in interference fit with the sealing groove. The flange parts need to be subjected to sealing pressure test before factory leaving, and in the test process, the roughness of the wall surface of the sealing groove can be damaged by using the metal sealing gasket ring 4, so that the field use performance of the product after factory leaving is influenced. Especially when the diameter of seal groove is great, above-mentioned problem appears more easily, and the field repair is wasted time and energy, and has great potential safety hazard. Meanwhile, the metal sealing gasket ring 4 needs to be replaced every time when being used for a disposable product due to the sealing working principle. The two problems seriously affect the working efficiency of the factory pressure test of the flange products, simultaneously bury hidden dangers for the later use of the products and have poor economic benefit.
In order to solve the problems, the damage of the metal sealing gasket ring to the sealing groove in the delivery pressure test process of flange products is avoided, and part of manufacturers change the material of the sealing gasket ring into nylon. Since the non-metallic gasket ring is only used for in-plant testing, there is no need to consider the service life of the nylon gasket ring, and it seems that the above problems are solved.

When the pressure is too high, leakage may occur. If the volume of the nylon gasket ring is reduced, the compression amount is reduced, and the problem of high-pressure leakage is also caused. Meanwhile, the flange using the nylon sealing gasket ring needs to pre-tighten the bolt or the stud to the required torque in the test process, so that the operation is complex and the working efficiency is low.

The metal sealing gasket ring 4 can still keep good sealing effect under the high-pressure working condition because the metal sealing ring has self-excitation performance. When the interface of the flange 1 bears the internal pressure, the internal pressure of the metal sealing gasket ring 4 is expanded outwards, so that the sealing surface of the outer ring of the technical sealing gasket ring is more reliably attached to the outer ring 6 of the sealing groove, namely the sealing performance of the metal sealing gasket ring 4 is realized by the internal pressure.
