High Density Flexible Graphite Sealing Material 0.15-5.0mm Thickness 1000-1500mm Width
Premium flexible graphite sealing material with 99% carbon purity, temperature range from -200°C to 3000°C, and pressure rating up to 20MPa. Features exceptional corrosion resistance, self-lubrication, and compressive resilience. Available in widths up to 1500mm and thickness from 0.15mm to 5.0mm for industrial gaskets and high-temperature insulation applications.
Flexible graphite material, also known as expanded graphite sheet or graphite tape, is manufactured from natural graphite flakes through chemical treatment and high-temperature thermal expansion. This process creates exfoliated graphite structures with ultralow bulk density of approximately 3 kg/m³. The expanded graphite particles are compressed into rolls or sheets without binders or additives, ensuring exceptional purity and performance characteristics.
