Suitable for screw fitting applications in the heating, dimatisation and cooling technologies as well as in the sanitary field. Especially suited to hydraulic and pneumatic applications. KLINGERsafe-loc The safe gasket for screw fitting applications KLINGERsafe-loc is the new revolutionary gasket for screw fittings Increasing legislation over the use of asbestos-based products has necessitated the development of safe and reliable gaskets for screw fitting applications. However, asbestos free materials are often unsuited to this type of application because the gaskets tend to be very narrow with a thickness/width ratio of typically between 1/3 and 1/1. This can result in unsafe and unreliable joint. Comparison of typical application ranges with the range when installing the gasket with a pipe wrench shows that the conventional type of material does not guarantee safe operation. Typical load range of a screw fitting size3/4” Range of mounting by pipe wrench methode Safe range for conventional material Properties Cannot be overloaded ■ Tight even at low torque levels Does not harden No seating ■ Allows for adjustment of the screw fittings under preload ■ Automatic centring Safe installation ■ The ideal gasket for fluctuating temperatures Service temperature max. 150°C ■ KTW approval C 2200/98/st for the standard type made of stainless steel (KLINGERmetal 2540 NE) The problems of overloading can be overcome with the KLINGERsafe-loc gasket. Its unique combination of properties ensures safe and reliable performance for screw fitting applications.
