POWERgasket sealing - gaskets for non-parallel surfaces solves problems due to insufficient gasket elasticity and prevents leakage of pollutants into the environment. Also suitable for applications with low initial tightening torque, or where cooling and repeated heating of the flange occurs.
The production process of laying the graphite onto the surface of the metal core ensures its application without pores, which occur in gaskets of graphite plates.
- Thanks to its construction, the gasket is able to seal even the flange blades bent from previous tightening.
- The most economical solution for low emission leakage and cyclic temperature stresses.
- The construction provides better sealing properties than standard gaskets.
The production process of laying the graphite onto the surface of the metal core ensures its application without pores, which occur in gaskets of graphite plates.
- The gasket thickness of 9.4 mm prevents the outer diameters of the flanges from touching each other.
- The gasket deflection during assembly is min. 2 mm.
Sealing material - flexible graphite
- Contains a passive corrosion inhibitor.
- Adaptive to a flange unevenness.
- Free of additives and adhesives (high purity).
- Chemically resistant.
- Reduced porosity.
- Thermally conductive.
- Low thermal expansion.
- Not manufactured by rolling process, therefore the properties are uniform in all directions.

Typically, graphite is applied to the metal core of the gasket only in a single density thus providing the single density benefits.
- Low and high-density graphite is applied to the POWERgasket - a gasket for non-parallel surfaces, whereby the gasket benefit from both values.
- The inhibitor prevents corrosion on sealing surfaces and increases operating temperature in oxidation atmosphere up to +525 °C.
