Flexible Graphite Gaskets

Flexible Graphite Gaskets: 

Our gaskets made from graphite flake material excel in extreme conditions, withstanding heat, pressure and aggressive/corrosive chemical environments to retain stability and sealing performance in high temperatures and pressure fluctuations. Expanded graphite sheets are produced from pure, expanded flexible graphite and do not contain any other fibers or filler materials.

Graphite gaskets are universally applicable for gases and fluids. They are chemically resistant against most media, have excellent thermal conductivity, can be stored indefinitely, do not need anti-stick coating and are extremely resistant to temperature cycles.

Because of its specific structure expanded graphite gaskets are particularly suited for applications with extremely high or low temperatures, with highly corrosive and aggressive media, for sensitive flange materials (i.e. enamel, glass, plastic) and for gas and steam applications.

Because graphite sheets are very fragile and therefore difficult to handle, we recommend the use of styles with metal insertions
