Asahi/America valve gaskets offer a unique double convex ring design that gives optimum sealing with only one third the torque commonly required with flat faced gaskets. Asahi offers EPDM gaskets from 1/2" to 12"; PTFE-bonded EPDM gaskets in sizes from 1/2" to 12"; and PVDF-bonded EPDM gaskets from 1/2" to 10".
-
EPDM - durometer A, hardness 65 - 68
-
PTFE or PVDF-bonded EPDM for maximum corrosion resistance
-
Perfect sealing at low bolt tightening torque ratings; longer gasket life
-
Ideal for plastic piping systems, as well as metal or plastic-lined metal systems
-
Working temperature:
-
Approximately tne third bolt tightening torque ratings as compared with flat or envelope type gasket
-
Thickness of bonded materials
-
PTFE: All Sizes: 0.016" (0.4mm)
-
PVDF:Sizes 1/2" - 2": 0.016" (0.4mm)
-
PVDF:Sizes 3" - 10": 0.020" (0.5mm)
-
PTFE-bonded gasket excellent for most corrosive chemicals
-
PVDF-bonded gasket is ideal for the following:
-
Semi-conductor industry, because of its purity
-
Aggressive chemicals (strong acids, bases, halogens, etc.)
-
Media that generates any volatile gas (PVDF gas permeation is only 1/50 of PTFE)
-
Both the PTFE and PVDF-bonded gaskets employ a proprietary laminating process for bonding to EPDM, providing the greater elasticity required for lower sealing torques
