No. Stack of gaskets is not recommended to fill large gap of gasket as sealing cannot be done completely.Concentration of solution is important when gasket is required to be recommended for Acid application.Die Electric strength is the mechanical strength of  gasket. In soft gasket Tensile strength value and incase of semi metallic gasket the material density.In semi metallic gaskets the metal used in gasket need to be softer then Flange material.Creep relaxation is the measurement of how much a particular gasket material spreads (thins) out when force is applied. As the gasket loses thickness, the bolts can relax,which leads to a loss of load.TGA is Thermo gravimetric Analysis is weight loss testing of gasket at recommended temperature of gasket.M=Maintainace factor & Y=Yield factor.Ukl does not recommend re-use of gasket once removed from assembly as it looses compressibility and recovery properties.Best thickness recommended is 1.5mm. Lesser the thickness better the sealing as less torque required for proper sealing.

1. Can we use stack of gaskets to fill large gap in flange?
