For nearly 50 years Pipeline Seal subjected to the most severe

and Insulator Co. Ltd, have been
a technology leader in the field
of high quality sealing and
isolating products used to
guarantee the safe flow of
fluids passing through pipeline
transmission, distribution and
process piping systems.
An installed base of thousands
upon thousands of gaskets and
flange isolation kits, effectively
sealing and maintaining the
integrity of corrosion mitigation
programmes everywhere,
confirms the effectiveness and
reliability of the PSI system. In
fact, PSI flange isolation products
are relied upon for applications
conditions (both internal and
external), for specialised or
exotic fluids or for applications
subject to extreme temperature
and pressure fluctuations.
Flange isolation products
include a wide selection of
isolating/ sealing gaskets along
with a variety of sleeves and
washers. For maximum
flexibility, components may be
ordered separately or as part of
complete flange isolation kits.
PSI has manufacturing and

DESIGN AND PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY
Pipeline Seal and Insulator Co.
has invested heavily into state-
of-the-art machinery used in the
production of its gaskets and
sealing systems. Our advanced
facilities in the UK utilise the very
latest water jet cutting technology
coupled with CNC turning
capabilities to produce precision
gaskets for all applications.
Our design and manufacturing
capabilities are further enhanced
by our Group facilities throughout
the world.
