Graphite Gaskets

Description:

Flexible Graphite is a superior performing packing and gasket material. It is the first fluid sealing material made exclusively from natural graphite flake. As a result, its resistance to corrosion, aggressive chemicals, heat and fire make it a critical sealing solution for a variety of applications. Its high degree of chemical compatibility makes Graphite Gaskets inert to most chemicals and gases. It provides an excellent seal even after continuous exposure to the elements.

Graphite is generally used in high temperature and high pressure environments and commonly finds applications in steam cycling or exhaust applications. These gaskets provide a higher performance seal in these conditions than non-asbestos jointing. Graphite has a low friction surface. It excels in extreme conditions, resisting high pressures and temperatures.

It is available as a pure graphite sheet or with a steel core insertion which gives greater rigidity to the material. We can supply industrial or nuclear grade graphite.
