This folder presents the essential data on the gasket materials used in our KLINGERSIL? range. The pT diagrams are of particular value as an aid to selecting the right gasket for your application. Detailed information permitting selection of the optimum gasket material is provided inside. KLINGER – The global leader in static sealing KLINGERSIL Optimum flange security ?

If your operating temperatures and pressures are within this ”open” field, a technical examination is always necessary. If your operating temperatures and pressures are within this field a technical examination is recommended. If your operating temperatures and pressures fall within this field, a technical examination is normally unnecessary. Subject to technical alterations. Issue: June 2008 The many and varied demands made on gaskets The successful operation of a gasket depends upon a multiplicity of factors. Many who use static gaskets believe that the values quoted for maximum admissible temperature and maximum operating pressure are inherent properties or characteristics of gaskets and gasket materials. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The maximum temperatures and pressures at which gaskets may be used are influenced by a large number of factors. Therefore a definite statement of these values for gasket material is not possible. *Gaskets according to DIN 2690 are only standardised up to PN 40 So why does Klinger provide pT diagrams? For the reasons given the pT diagram is not infallible: it serves as a rough guide for the end user who often has only the operating temperatures and pressures to go on. Additional stresses such as greatly fluctuating load may significantly affect whether a gasket is suitable for the application. Resistance to media must be taken int
