Econgraph®-TI is a reinforced graphite sheet with an insert of tanged SS-316 sheet with a thickness of 0,10 mm. No adhesive is required to bond the graphite layers to the insert as the graphite material is fixed to the insert by small, sharp teeth. We strongly advise against cutting gaskets by hand. Our cutting department has the correct tools to make the gaskets for you. Econgraph®-TI is very often used in flange joints for pipes and machinery. The high temperature range and the excellent residual stress make our Econgraph®-TI very suitable for use in steam systems, in the chemical and petrochemical industries, the process industry etc. In short, an exceptional and very versatile sealing material.
