Planigraph™ Evo

Composition

Graphite gaskets for flanges in low pressure services.

Characteristics

Pure flexible graphite C > 98.00 % covered on both side with 2 special polimeric films. Planigraph ™ Evo pure graphite flat gaskets are excellent substitutes of CSF gaskets - Compressed Synthetic Fibers - thanks to their smaller creep and for their moderate sensitivity to the thermal cycles.

Applications

Planigraph™ Evo pure graphite gaskets are great for sealing flanges in low pressure services. The pure graphite has moderate tensile strength and it is therefore always recommended to use thin thicknesses, from 1.0 to 1.5 mm, for a perfect seal. These gaskets are also available in the style Metalbond Evo thicknesses 2.0 and 3.0 mm with stainless steel inner eyelet which are suitable for application intended in contact with food applications.
