Flat Gaskets for PN Flanges

DIN 2690 is the old German standard for flat flange gaskets, now replaced by EN 1514-1, but many buyers still search for it. Gaskets for this standard are usually made from compressed fiber sheet, rubber or PTFE. Silicone is a better choice when the line carries food, or when the flange sees very low or very high temperatures, because silicone works from -60°C to +200°C and is safe for food contact. ZSR produces silicone flat gaskets to DIN 2690 and EN 1514-1 dimensions for PN6 to PN40 flanges. Common DN sizes are in stock for fast delivery. Just tell us your flange DN and PN, and we will do the rest.

Understanding PN Flanges and DIN 2690

DIN 2690 is the German standard for flat gaskets used on PN-designated pipe flanges — covering ratings from PN10 up to PN100 (PN10, PN16, PN25, PN40, PN63, PN100).

What does PN mean?

PN stands for Pressure Nominal — the European pressure rating system. The number is roughly the maximum working pressure in bar at room temperature: a PN16 flange handles about 16 bar, a PN40 flange about 40 bar. As temperature rises, the allowed pressure drops, following the flange standard's rating tables.

What does DN mean?

DN stands for Diameter Nominal — the nominal pipe bore in millimeters. DN100 means a pipe of roughly 100 mm bore. Every DIN 2690 gasket is sized to its DN number and its PN rating.

At ZSR Silicone Parts, we manufacture DIN 2690 silicone gaskets for DN sizes from DN10 to DN1000 and larger — cut to standard dimensions, with food grade material available for the food and water lines where these flanges are so common.

DN Size and Gasket Dimensions

The gasket's inner diameter follows the DN number; the outer diameter grows with the PN rating — higher pressure flanges are bigger and need bigger gaskets. Common sizes (IBC ring type, mm):

PN25 and PN40 outer diameters start to differ at DN200 and above — tell us your exact PN rating and we confirm the dimension. Full charts for all DN and PN combinations are available on request.

About higher PN ratings

Higher pressure means higher bolt load. For PN40 and above, we recommend thicker gaskets (3 mm) or our fiberglass reinforced silicone, which resists extrusion under heavy bolting.

Fast production

ZSR keeps cutting templates for the common DN sizes on file. Standard sizes move straight to cutting — no setup delay, short lead times, and common sizes ship from stock.

DIN 2690 vs EN 1514-1

Buyers often meet both names for what looks like the same gasket. Here is the relationship:

Factor

DIN 2690

EN 1514-1

Status

Older German standard, officially withdrawn

Current harmonized European standard

Region

Germany and legacy European plants

All EU projects and new installations

Dimensions

The original size system

Largely the same — IDs are identical or very close for most DN sizes

Tolerances

Standard of its time

Tighter, more formal tolerance and marking requirements

Gasket Types

Flat ring and full face

Formally defines IBC, FF, TG (tongue-and-groove), and SR (spigot-recess) types

Typical Buyer

Maintenance, spare parts, older drawings

New projects, engineering specifications

What this means for you

In most cases, a gasket made to one standard physically fits the other's flanges — the dimensions are the same or within a millimeter. But if your drawing or your customer's specification says EN 1514-1, order EN 1514-1; if an old German drawing says DIN 2690, we make that.

ZSR manufactures to both standards. Not sure which one your flange needs? Send us the drawing number, the old gasket, or simply the DN and PN — we will confirm the right standard before production.

What Is DIN 2690?

DIN 2690 is a classic German standard for flat gaskets on PN pipe flanges. Published by DIN, the German Institute for Standardization, it fixed the inner and outer diameters of nonmetallic flat gaskets for every DN size and PN pressure rating — so a gasket from any maker would fit any PN flange built to the matching German standards. Although it has been officially withdrawn and replaced by the European standard EN 1514-1, DIN 2690 never really left: thousands of drawings, spare parts lists, and maintenance manuals across Europe and beyond still call for it by name. It remains one of the most searched gasket standards in the replacement market.

Key Points of the Standard
  • A Dimension Standard — DIN 2690 defines gasket sizes, not materials. Traditional gaskets to this standard are compressed fiber, PTFE, graphite, or rubber; silicone follows the same dimensions.
  • Built Around DN and PN — Two numbers define every gasket: the DN pipe size and the PN pressure rating. Simple to specify, impossible to misunderstand.
  • Replaced, But Not Gone — EN 1514-1 carries the system forward with tighter tolerances, but DIN 2690 dimensions live on inside it. Old plants, old drawings, and old flanges still speak DIN 2690.
  • The Language of European Maintenance — When a European plant needs a replacement gasket for a 30-year-old flange, the purchase order usually reads DIN 2690.

At ZSR Silicone Parts, we cut silicone gaskets to DIN 2690 dimensions every week — from DN10 instrument flanges to DN1000 pipelines, with common sizes in stock. Tell us your DN, your PN, and your medium — we will send a quote within 24 hours.
