Because the flexible graphite has plasticity and good filling property, when using this kind of gasket, the matching flange seal surface does not need to carry on the precision processing, has the waterline on the stainless steel flange seal surface, the groove also can adapt, relative economy. This gasket, also known as the flexible graphite metal reinforced composite gasket, is a kind of sealing gasket, which is made up of a metal toothed plate or punched metal core plate and a flexible graphite particle, which is usually made of flexible graphite composite reinforcing plate, and a typical flexible graphite metal reinforced composite flange gasket.
As required, flexible graphite metal reinforced composite flange gasket can be made into stainless steel or carbon steel inside or outside the package edge. The main features of this gasket are: good resistance to high, low temperature, corrosion resistance, radiation resistance and other properties, high strength, can be used under high-pressure conditions. The required preload is smaller than the use of metal gaskets or metal-wound gaskets.
