How to Measure the Shell:

The radius is the distance

To find the radius of the


barrel measure the interior
wall to the opposite wall
and divide the
measurement in half.

How to Measure Flanges & Gaskets

The measuring principles apply to both flanges and gaskets.


*Above is a drawing of a Flange.
The Bolt Circle is the measurement (diameter) of an imaginary circle passing
through the centers of all the bolts in a round pattern. This is represented by the
Blue Dashed Circle in the drawing. To measure such circle measure from the
center of one bolt directly across to the center of the other bolt.
The Outside Diameter is the measurement of the outside of the Flange or Gasket.
The Inside Diameter is the measurement of the inside of the hole of a Flange or
Gasket.
The Sealing Surface is the area of contact the gasket is placed to seal between
two flange connections.
All measurements should be made across the center of the flange or gasket.
