The metallic boiler gasket goes with various names depending on the country or region. In Kenya and East Africa countries, it is refered to as the metallic gasket while in some places it is known as graphite composite panels or high-strength graphite reinforced plate or sheet.
The metallic gasket is made of metal teeth sprint plate or flat sheet metal and pure graphite composite roll made of sealing material. Graphite composite plate inner reinforcing materials commonly used in ss304, ss316L or tinplate thickness 0.05 ~ 0.2mm, generally in the form of composite reinforced sprint plate, stencil composite reinforced, flat composite reinforced several.
It has a thermal stability, high strength and no cold flow characteristics, can be made into a variety of complex geometric shapes round and gaskets such as water gauge gasket, head gasket, exhaust pipe gaskets with ribs exchanger gasket is widely used.
