LE-SAFE adhesive-free Grooved gasket with integral centering ring, pre-determined breaking point and both-sided graphite layers
The grooved stainless steel core [1.4404, pitch 1,0 mm] is covered on both sides with functionalized soft material layers made from expanded pure graphite using the adhesive-free LE-SAFE technology. The integral centering ring [machined] is additionally provided with a pre-determined breaking point, which prevents vibration breaks in the sealing area.
Grooved gaskets require low minimum sealing surface pressure, but can also resist very high loads.
LE-SAFE Grooved gaskets impress by a very high pressure application limit, low leakage rate and are therefore suitable for extreme operation conditions [e.g. cryogenic, oxygen, hydrogen].
To ensure the safety in oxygen applications, a batch-related test report from the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung [BAM] is optionally available.
