Corrugated Flexible Graphite Tape with Adhesive

Product Description

Style CG2003 - Corrugated Graphite Tape

Corrugated flexible graphite tape with adhesive is made from plain flexible graphite tape pressed under corrugated mould. Corrugated graphite tape designed for use as braided gland packing, widely used for pump and valves. It is easily installed for small diameter valves.

Corrugated flexible graphite tape with adhesive backed is used for flange sealing as gasket, especially for large diameter flanges.

Benefits of Flexible Graphite?

Because of its versatility and sealing capabilities, Flexible graphite is becoming a favourable material for extreme service applications. From pulp and paper, and mining to chemical, petrochemical, and automotive applications, the high thermal conductivity, chemical resistance, and self-lubrication of flexible graphite lends itself well in these industries. The chemically inertness allows for the operation in a pH environment of 0 -14. In addition, graphite offers high thermal conductivity and low electrical resistance.

Flexible graphite is particularly attractive to the textile industry, as it is non-hazardous and conforms to both the registration, evaluation, authorization and restriction of chemicals and hazardous substances.

Corrugated flexible graphite tape with adhesive made from mineral expandable flake graphite, contains a carbon content over 99 percent. The flexibility of the graphite sheet is directly proportional to the carbon content.

Operating range and Properties

Static pressure = 130 bar, and for working temperature, Minimum Temperature: -200°C. Maximum Temp in Air: 450°C. Chemical resistance: pH = 0 to 14. Carbon Content: 98% Min. Total Sulfur Content: 40 - 1000 ppm max.

Applications:

Corrugated flexible graphite tape with adhesive can be used as form-in-place gasket, valve stem packing, pump stuffing box packing, thread seal, or other irregular shaped seal or gasket.
