General Information

All technical information and advice are based on our experience and are to the best of our knowledge, but do not state any liability by our company. Specifications and values must always be checked by the customers, for they are the only ones that can judge the efficiency of a product taking into account all of the on-site operating conditions.

Easy Installation

Minimize installation and maintenance time!

The self adhesive backing makes KWO® CellFlon CL Gasket Tapes easy and quick to install.
Completely clean the sealing surfaces and remove any dirt, corrosion, oil, or leftover gasket material.

Cut the first end of the gasket tape using the sloping cut shown in Fig. 1. Remove the protective paper and start next to a bolthole, sticking the tape at the centre of the sealing surface.

1

Stick the gasket tape around the flange circumference and close the gasket using a second sloping cut for the ending (see Fig. 2). Leave in any case more than 100% material thickness at the overlap – the endings will interlock and a safe jointing will be produced.
