Benefts
Outstanding fre resistance
¦ Combination of graphite fller and mica layers give
superior fre safety
Ideal for oxidizing environments
¦ Layers of pure mica protect graphite fller and resist
oxidation
¦ Good choice for plant steam drums, hydrocarbon
catcrackers, hydrogen units, and exhaust
manifolds
Seals with lower bolt loads
¦ Relief tab design provides solid seating of
centering ring face
¦ Withstands bolt load loss caused by thermal
cycling
¦ Inner wrap construction eliminates radial buckling
¦ Prevents catastrophic failure and potential damage
to downstream equipment due to wire unraveling
