GFS Graphite materials, including Garlock GRAPH-LOCK®, are composed of pure, exfoliated flake material. These materials excel in extreme conditions and withstands high temperatures, high pressures, and aggressive chemicals. Graphite materials also provide excellent resistance and is proven to be fire-safe.
Graphite gasketing provides a reliable seal as it seals easily under moderate bolt load, offers superior torque retention, retains dimensional stability in high temperatures and seals tightly, even during pressure fluctuations.
Flexible graphite is manufactured in such a manner that no organic or inorganic binders and fillers are introduced — the end product is essentially pure graphite with outstanding physical properties. The insertion of wire mesh, stainless steel foil, and tanged metal inserts increase strength and ease of handling.
Klinger SLS Flexible Graphite
Klinger SLS Flexible Graphite: High strength material with optimum handling. KLINGER flexible graphite materials do not flow under pressure and temperature loading, and are a reliable source for sealing of gases and liquids. They have an outstanding resistance against temperature variations and high thermal conductivity.
Klinger PSM Flexible Graphite
Klinger PSM Flexible Graphite: High strength material with optimum handling. KLINGER flexible graphite materials do not flow under pressure and temperature loading, and are a reliable source for sealing of gases and liquids. They have an outstanding resistance against temperature variations and high thermal conductivity.
GRAPH-LOCK® 3128 HOCHDRUCK®
GRAPH-LOCK® 3128 HOCHDRUCK® is a multi-layer, high strength sheet material composed of .020” thick layers of high purity flexible graphite (carbon >99.85%) and .002” thick layers of 316 stainless steel foil insert. It provides high compressive strength, blow-out resistance, excellent handling properties, and improved tightness.
GRAPH-LOCK® 3125-TC
GRAPH-LOCK® 3125-TC Flexible Graphite Gasketing: Mechanically bonded graphite sheet with a 316SS tang insert. Purified natural graphite flake that have been acid washed, expanded under heat, and then compressed into sheets with a minimum graphite content of 98%.
Klinger HL Flexible Graphite
Klinger HL Flexible Graphite: High strength material with optimum handling. KLINGER flexible graphite materials do not flow under pressure and temperature loading, and are a reliable source for sealing of gases and liquids. They have an outstanding resistance against temperature variations and high thermal conductivity.
GRAPH-LOCK® 3125-SS
GRAPH-LOCK® 3125-SS has laminated layers of 0.015" purified natural graphite flake that have been acid washed, expanded under heat and then compressed into sheets with a minimum graphite content of 98%. This sheet contains a 0.002” thick 316 stainless steel foil insert, bonded with a proprietary adhesive.
GRAPH-LOCK® 3124 and GRAPH-LOCK® 3126
GRAPH-LOCK® 3124 and 3126 feature laminated layers of purified natural graphite flake that have been acid washed, expanded under heat, and then compressed into sheets with a minimum graphite content of 98%. This sheet contains a 0.0075” thick 316 stainless steel wire mesh (24 mesh) insert, bonded with a proprietary adhesive.
GRAPH-LOCK® 3123
GRAPH-LOCK® 3123: The graphite flake has been acid washed, expanded under heat, and then compressed into sheets with a minimum graphite content of 98%. For thicknesses under 1/16” homogenous graphite is used. For thicknesses over 1/16” laminated graphite is used. The laminated graphite sheets are bonded with a proprietary adhesive.
