Flexible Graphite Sheet Laminate
Flexible Graphite Sheet Laminates are made with high purity 2010B grade flexible graphite reinforced with metallic or non-metallic inserts. There are two basic bonding types: adhesive bond and mechanically bond (metal tang clinched)
Characteristics and Specs
- Heat and fire resistant
- Chemical resistant, compatible with most chemicals
- Compressible, conformable, low creep relaxation
- Thermal conductive, electrical conductive
- Reinforced structure to handle high pressure applications
Working Temperature Range:
Oxidizing Atmosphere, such as air: -400° F to 950° F (-240°C to 510°C)
Mild Oxidizing Atmosphere of most gasket applications: -400° F to 1500° F(-240°C to 850° C)
Non-Oxidizing Atmosphere: -400° F to 5400° F (-240°C to 3000° C)
Thermal Conductivity:
Parallel to Sheet Surface: 960 BTU-in/ft2.h.F (140 W/m.K)
Through Thickness: 36 BTU.in/ ft2.h.F (5W/m.K)
Typical Applications
Heat and chemical resistant gasket, seal, liner; thermal conductive seal; heat exchanger gasket
