Envelope Gaskets

Envelope Gaskets

Envelope Gaskets are widely used in food, pharma, chemical, and petrochemical industries because of their excellent resistance features to ensure operational safety and product purity. Sealmax serves reputed clients in these industries as respected PTFE envelope gasket suppliers as well as gasket manufacturers. The envelope gaskets are available with metallic rings and non-metallic inserts as per the client requirements.

The PTFE envelope gasket from Sealmax, one of the notable PTFE envelope gaskets manufacturers, is produced in accordance with the international safety standards including FDA regulations depending on the desired application. The quality assurance of German engineering can be experienced in the product range offered by Sealmax as well.

Properties

  • Very good media resistance with the exception of liquid alkali metals and some fluorine compound
  • Suitable for increased requirements in operational safety, tightness and product purity
  • Long-term stable compression and recovery characteristics
  • PTFE is physiologically harmless for continuous operation temperatures up to 260 °C as per BG no. 21
  • Low permeability towards gases and liquids
  • Anti-adhesive surface
  • UV and ageing resistant [does not apply to the non-metallic insert made from Centellen WS 3822]
  • Good non-stick characteristics
  • Excellent dielectric properties
  • FDA-conform PTFE-envelope as well as non-metallic insert made from UNISEAL® [WS 3400], AFM 34 and UNIFLUOR® [WS 7550]
  • Complies with TA Luft 2002 [VDI 2440/2200] leakage requirements
  • For compounds with conductive pigment TFM 6221: Electrical conductivity, FDA-conform
  • For designs with corrugated ring and/or SIGRAFLEX® EMAIL [WS 3825]: Temperature resistance from -200 °C to 200°C [short term 230 °C]
  • For designs with corrugated ring and/or SIGRAFLEX® EMAIL [WS 3825]: Temperature resistance from -200 °C to 200°C [short term 230 °C]
  • For designs with SIGRAFLEX® EMAIL [WS 3825]: The metal reinforcement in the SIGRAFLEX® material, which is close to the surface and free from adhesives, prevents sideway slip- ping of the graphite laminate for unreinforced or glued graphite inserts [unreinforced or glued] due to flow patterns of the PTFE-envelope
  • For designs with SIGRAFLEX® EMAIL [WS 3825]: The cold flow and warm flow characteristics typical for PTFE is compensated by the superior recovery behavior even at high temperatures
  • For designs with corrugated ring and/or SIGRAFLEX® EMAIL [WS 3825]: Increased blow-out resistance

Applications

  • For aggressive media which is hazardous for the health
  • Broad range of applications primarily in the chemical and petro-chemical sector
  • Use in food sector and pharmaceutical production
  • Used for high requirements in process purity
  • Gasket systems for pipeline flanges, device and container flanges
  • In steel pipelines:
  • Gaskets with corrugated metal ring
  • Gaskets with aramid fiber insert with/without corrugated metal ring
  • Gaskets with PTFE insert with/without corrugated metal ring
  • For glass lined pipelines, containers, nozzles and assembly openings as well as for low surface pressures, waviness and warping of the flange sealing surfaces and for sensitive flange surfaces, stress and bend sensitive flange connections:
  • Gaskets with SIGRAFELX® EMAIL insert with/without corrugated metal ring
  • Gaskets with PTFE insert with/without corrugated metal ring
