Introduction
The document provides an overview of DIFLEX universal gaskets, emphasizing their advantages over traditional asbestos gaskets, particularly in terms of environmental and health benefits in industrial applications.
Specifications
DIFLEX gaskets are chemically resistant (pH 0-14) and suitable for industries like chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and food. They operate between -150°C and +260°C and withstand high pressures. Thickness options include 2 mm and 3 mm, with specific pressures of 25.5 N/mm² and 11.02 N/mm², respectively.
Properties
DIFLEX gaskets are highly compressible yet elastic, non-absorbent, non-adhesive, weatherproof, acid-proof, and non-toxic. They are also fire-resistant, burning only in atmospheres with over 95% oxygen.
Applications
These gaskets are versatile, suitable for flat and profiled gaskets, and pressure equipment. They can be manufactured in unlimited diameters and shapes due to exclusive welding technology.
Compliance and Safety
DIFLEX gaskets meet EEC regulations and FDA standards, ensuring safety in producing basic commodities.
Performance and Testing
Field tests show DIFLEX gaskets maintain performance under continuous service and high-pressure conditions. They are easy to assemble and remove, with high shape stability and shock resistance. The DIN 3535 test confirms low leakage rates.
Technical Data
Product color: Grey or white. Sheet size: 1500 x 1500 mm or 1500 x 3000 mm. Thickness: 0.5 - 3 mm. Operating temperature: -150° to +260°C. Working pressure: 80 bar at room temperature. pH range: 0 to 14.
Conclusion
DIFLEX gaskets provide a reliable, environmentally friendly alternative to asbestos gaskets, with superior chemical resistance and compliance with international safety standards.
