Metalbond is the graphite gasket with inner eyelet that increases the effectiveness of the seal. It is the solution that allows a minimum diffusion of the fluid through the most stressed part of the gasket. At the same time it is an economical and long service gasket because the eyelet prevents the erosion of the inner edge of the seal and avoid the permeation of the fluid through the graphite.
Expanded graphite C> 98.00% with tanged foil inserted and inner steel eyelet. Since the graphite does not come into direct contact with the fluid the mechanical properties of the seal remain unchanged over time, guaranteeing a longer joint operating life and a drastic reduction of fugitive emissions with greater safety.
Graphite gaskets for flanges. The graphite doesn't work with oxidizing fluids.
