Separation Rings

In a `twin brick` convertor assembly, a device is needed to maintain a constant gap between the fron and rear monoliths. Conventionally, this has involved a pressed metal (usually inconel) clip, which can have a tendancy to creep with thermal expansion and lift away from its seating position on the edges of the monolith. This allows turbulent gas to travel underneath the clip causing erosion and degradation of the expanding mat. Flexible knitted wire mesh separation rings overcome all of the above problems.
