Industrial Custom Thickness Graphite Gaskets Designed for Deep Cooling High Vacuum Working Conditions with Outstanding High Temperature Resistance Performance
Products Description
Product Overview
Our industrial-grade graphite gaskets are manufactured using high-purity natural graphite flakes processed through chemical intercalation and high-temperature thermal expansion technology. The expanded graphite forms a loose worm-like microstructure with an ultralow bulk density of around 3 kg/m³, which is then pressed into sheets, rolls, foil, tape or strips without any binder additives. This production route ensures carbon purity above 99.8% and delivers exceptional sealing stability for deep cooling, high vacuum, high temperature and heavy-duty industrial working conditions.
Engineered specifically for harsh service environments, these custom-thickness graphite gaskets provide reliable static and dynamic sealing performance for process pipelines, valves, pressure equipment and vacuum installations across oil, chemical, petrochemical and general industrial processing sites.
Core Performance Advantages
Excellent Thermal & Vacuum Stability
- Wide operating temperature range: -200°C to 600°C, maintaining stable performance in deep cooling and extreme high-temperature environments.
- Low thermal expansion coefficient ensures minimal dimensional change under rapid temperature fluctuations.
- Low outgassing property and high structural stability ideal for long-term high vacuum service.
Strong Chemical & Medium Compatibility
- High resistance to acids, alkalis, hydrocarbons, oils and other corrosive media commonly found in industrial processes.
- Ultra-low sulfur and chlorine content effectively prevents alloy corrosion and meets strict purity requirements.
- Non-reactive and non-contaminating, suitable for high-purity process systems.
Superior Mechanical & Sealing Properties
- Balanced compressibility and recovery rate for tight sealing even on imperfect flange surfaces.
- High impermeability effectively blocks gas, liquid and slurry leakage.
- Self-lubricating characteristics reduce friction and wear in valve stem and dynamic sealing parts.
