What are graphite gasket sheets
Graphite gasket sheets are sealing materials made from expanded or compressed graphite, known for their excellent resistance to high temperatures, pressure and aggressive media. These sheets provide reliable sealing performance in demanding industrial environments.
Graphite gasket material offers low permeability and strong chemical resistance, making graphite gasket sheets suitable for applications where conventional fiber or rubber materials are insufficient.
When to use graphite gasket material
Graphite gasket material is used in sealing applications involving high temperatures, thermal cycling or aggressive chemicals. It performs well under both static and dynamic loads and maintains sealing integrity over a wide temperature range.
Graphite gasket sheets are commonly selected for critical flange connections where leakage prevention and long-term stability are essential.
Applications of graphite gasket sheets
Graphite gasket sheets are applied in pipe flanges, heat exchangers, valves, pumps and pressure vessels. They are widely used in industries such as chemical processing, power generation, oil & gas and petrochemicals.
Graphite gasket material can be supplied as pure graphite sheets or combined with metal reinforcement, and can be cut into custom gasket shapes for high-performance sealing applications.
