field,where they were usedin various forms for manhole covers,autoclaves,and other closures;however,it was in the oilindustry(both in the production and refining of oil)that they received the greatest recognitionand were developed into their present form.Their use expanded steadily as temperatures andpressures were increased in steam plants.Tests examining their application in flanges and valveswere conducted as early as 1928.In June 1936,the American Petroleum Institute(API)issued Tentative Standard 5-G-3 on Ring-Joints for Steel Flanges and Flange Unions for use with API Tubular Goods.This standard wasknown as API Specification 6B,Ring-Joint Flanges.Following the acceptance of ring-joints forflanges and valves by API and the issuance of their standard,ASA B16e on Steel Pipe Flangesand Flanged Fittings was revised to include them,and the 1939 edition included standarddimensions for a full line of ring-joint flanges based on the API standard.Development workcontinued and API formulated Standard 6E,Specification for Wellhead Equipment,whichincluded ring-joints not covered in ASA B16e-1939.In 1949,the American Standards Association(ASA),Sectional Committee B16,Subcommittee3,Steel Flanges and Flanged Fittings,assembled the available information on ring-joint gasketsinto a single standard.ASA approval was granted on April 30,1952,with the designation ASAB16.20-1952.An updated version was submitted and ASA approval was granted on April 4,1955,with thedesignation ASA B16.20-1955.Ring gaskets for Class 900(900 lb at that time)in sizes NPS 26through 36 were added and ASA approval was granted on April 2,1956.The standard wasreviewed in 1962 and approval was granted by the ASA on April 25,1963.The standard was again reviewed and approval was granted by the American National Stan-dards Institute(ANSI)on April 25,1973,with the designation of an American National Standard.API requested that ASME convert their gasket standard,API 601,into an ASME AmericanNational Standard.As a result of that request,the standard was expanded to include requirementsfor spiral-wound and jacketed gaskets that were formerly listed in API 601,7th edition,1988.Also,ring-joint groove dimensions were not included,because they were included in ASME/ANSI B16.5-1988,titled Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings,and ASME B16.47-1990,titled LargeDiameter Steel Flanges.The 1993 edition was approved by the B16 Standards Committee and,following approval byASME,approval by ANSI was given on January 22,1993,with the designation ASME B16.20-1993.In the 1998 edition of ASME B16.20,reference standards were updated,a quality systemprogram annex was added,inner ring inside diameters for spiral-wound gaskets were revised,and several editorial revisions were made.Following approval by ASME B16 Subcommittee Gand the B16 Main Committee,ANSI approved this American National Standard on November20,1998.In 2007,the standard adopted metric dimensions as an independent standard to the U.S.Customary units;Mandatory Appendix I has been added to cover dimensional tables in U.S.Customary units.Following approval by B16 Subcommittee G,the Standards Committee,andASME,ANSI approved this American National Standard on October 19,2007.ivASME B16 COMMITTEEStandardization of Valves,Flanges,Fittings,and Gaskets(The following is the roster of the

represent theconsensus of concerned interests.As such,users of this Standard may interact with the Committeeby requesting interpretations,proposing revisions,and attending Committee meetings.Corre-spondence should be addressed to:Secretary,B16 Standards CommitteeThe American Society of Mechanical EngineersThree Park AvenueNew York,NY 10016-5990As an alternative,inquiries may be submitted via email to:SecretaryB16asme.org.Proposing Revisions.Revisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changesthat appear necessary or desirable,as demonstrated by the experience gained from the applicationof the Standard.Approved revisions will be published periodically.The Committee welcomes proposals for revisions to this Standard.Such proposals should beas specific as possible,citing the paragraph number(s),the proposed wording,and a detaileddescription of the reasons for the proposal,including any pertinent documentation.Interpretations.Upon request,the B16 Committee will render an interpretation of any require-ment of the Standard.Interpretations can only be rendered in response to a written request sentto the Secretary of the B16 Standards Committee.The request for interpretation should be clear and unambiguous.It is further recommendedthat the inquirer submit his/her request in the following format:Subject:Cite the applicable paragraph number(s)and the topic of the inquiry.Edition:Cite the applicable edition of the Standard for which the interpretation isbeing requested.Question:Phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a specific requirementsuitable for general understanding and use,not as a request for an approvalof a proprietary design or situation.The inquirer may also include any plansor drawings that are necessary to explain the question;however,they shouldnot contain proprietary names or information.Requests that are not in this format will be rewritten in this format by the Committee priorto being answered,which may inadvertently change the intent of the original request.ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of any interpretation when or if additionalinformation that might affect an interpretation is available.Further,persons aggrieved by aninterpretation may appeal to the cognizant ASME Committee or Subcommittee.ASME does

referenced for use as a filler material in metallic gaskets.It has served as a universalsealingmaterial,compatiblewithmostfluidservices.Ithasbeenofextremeusefulnessinminimiz-ing fire hazards.Certain serious adverse health effects are associated with asbestos,among them the seriousand often fatal diseases of lung cancer,asbestosis,and mesothelioma(a cancer of the chest andabdominal linings).The degree of exposure to asbestos varies with the product and the workpractices involved.Consult the most recent edition of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration,U.S.Department of Labor,Occupational Safety and Health Standard for Asbestos,Tremolite,Antho-phyllite,and Actinolite,29 Code of Federal Regulations Section 1910.1001;the U.S.EnvironmentalProtection Agency National Emission Standard for Asbestos,40 Code of Federal RegulationsSections 61.140 through 61.156;and the proposed rule by the U.S.Environmental ProtectionAgency proposing labeling requirements and phased banning of asbestos products,published at51 Federal Register 3738-3759(January 29,1986).There are currently in use and under development a number of substitute materials to replaceasbestos in certain applications.Manufacturers and users are encouraged to develop and useeffective substitute materials that can meet the specifications for,and operating requirements of,the equipment to which they would apply.Informationconcerningsafetyandhealthrisksandproperprecautionswithrespecttoparticularmaterials and conditions should be obtained from ones employer,the manufacturer or supplierof that material,or the Material Safety Data Sheet.vii-,-,-INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANKviii-,-,-ASME B16.20-2007METALLIC GASKETS FOR PIPE FLANGESRing-Joint,Spiral-Wound,and Jacketed1SCOPE1.1 GeneralThis Standard
