A pure exfoliated graphite sheet gasket material providing high
levels of sealability in extreme conditions is now available from
Garlock (Great Britain) Limited. Graph-Lock?® 3125-TC
is reinforced with 316 Stainless Steel tang inserts which provide
increased mechanical properties of the gasket.
Graph-Lock® 3125 TC offers a high level of resistance to
aggressive chemicals and its ability to withstand high pressures
and extreme temperatures, up to 650 degree C in steam, makes it
ideal for a wide range of applications.
Laminated from compressed layers of purified natural graphite
flake, and mechanically bonded with the stainless steel tangs,
ensures the material retains dimensional stability in high temperatures.
In addition the material seals easily under moderate bolt loads
offering torque retention through service and sealing tightly
even during pressure fluctuations.
Supplied in sheet or finished gasket form, Graph-Lock® 3125
TC is available in thicknesses from 1.5 mm to 3 mm and is suitable
for fitting with eyelets. All material is clearly branded ‘Garlock’
providing a solution to traceability certification requirements.
