Compressed Inorganic Fiber Gasketing

The New Standard in Gasketing

A specially formulated, all purpose family of Garlock inorganic asbestos-free
fiber gasketing which exceeds the parameters of aramid fiber reinforced
gasketing in thermal stability, torque retention, sealability and weight loss.

As inorganic fibers do not oxidize IFG and ST-706 provides greater thermal
and dimensional stability during process cycling.

IFG is produced to meet most service requirements. The IFG material also
offers flexibility when writing corporate piping specifications – giving you
the right gasket for the right application – the first time.

ST-706 is the result of extensive research and development primarily aimed at

the requirement for a high temperature gasket, particularly for steam service.

Compressed Inorganic Fiber Gasketing

Benefits of the new generation fiber

Physical properties are extremely important when evaluating gasketing mate-
rials. ASTM and DIN tests set the benchmark so engineers can differentiate
one product from another.

IFG expands the application range over aramid and glass fiber gaskets, pro-
vides the possibility to limit the number of different gasketing materials (reduc-
tion of excessive inventory costs) and offers the opportunity to extend your
maintenance intervals.

IFG not only gives you higher physical properties than aramid fibers as shown
in fig. 1, but also offers improved bolt load retention over time (fig. 2).
Furthermore IFG provides higher sealability, better torque retention and lower
creep relaxation. For your security and safety the recommended pressure is
much lower than the test result shown in fig. 3. Comparing the accelerated
oxidation test (fig. 4), IFG performs about 50 % better than the aramid-fiber
and is almost identical to the asbestos gasketing material properties. Fig. 1: IFG vs. Aramid Fiber

GYLON Gasketing

High chemical resistant gasketing

Garlock GYLON gasketing is truly a superior and unique material. The exclu-
sive properties of GYLON gasketing are combined to deliver its superior per-
formance to comply with today’s clean air requirements through sealability
and torque retention. Asbestos-free GYLON gasketing routinely outperforms
all conventional PTFE products by drastically minimizing gasket creep and
cold flow problems. Typical conditions for GYLON gasketing are found in the
food, chemical and petrochemical industry, pulp and paper plants and phar-
maceutical industry. For special chemicals consult the chemical resistance
chart or contact Garlock.

GYLON Style 3500 and 3501 E Standard

These general purpose gasketing materials offer significant advantages over
conventional PTFE in regard to functionability at higher temperature/pressure
combinations. Style 3500 and 3501 E GYLON gasketing conform to FDA spe-
cifications. Often used in chemical processing and hydrocarbon processing
industries.

GYLON Style 3504 Blue
Style 3504 GYLON gasketing is very compressible due to its inorganic micro-
spheres, thus sealing more effectively under lower bolt loads. This excellent
gasketing material is ideal for use with glass-lined equipment and wherever
lower bolt loads to effect an efficient seal are necessary. Can replace PTFE
envelope gaskets in many instances. Conforms to FDA specifications.
GYLON Off-White Style 3510
Style 3510 GYLON has a very wide chemical resistance (the optimum of all
the GYLON gasketing products). It is particularly suited for service against
hydrofluoric acid and other strong chemicals such as potassium and sodium
hydroxide, hydrogen fluoride, aluminium fluoride and chrome plating solutions.
Conforms to FDA specifications.
GYLON Style 3545
GYLON Style 3545 consists of a highly compressible outer layer of microcel-
lular PTFE and rigid PTFE core which reduced the cold flow and creep.
Where by both components have been sintered together homogeneously.
These materials are made of pure PTFE without fillers. Style 3545 provides a
very soft surface, particularly suited for flanges with uneven surfaces and
where bolts can not be tightened strongly.
GYLON Style HP 3560
Special GYLON gasketing with a perforated stainless steel insert for agressive
chemicals and hostile environments where safety and blow-out resistance is
essential.
GYLON Standard, Blue and Off-White now TÜV
Certified: Quality Tested in high quality in accordance
with German Clean Air Regulations (“TA-Luft”)
A comprehensive test programme was run by the TÜV
Süddeutschland covering the following aspects:
• Low leak rate of the seal under maximum operating
conditions. Proof of a leak rate ≤ 0.01mg/(s x m).
• Checks on how assembly and maintenance is control-
led so as to ensure proper operation.
• Confirming leaktightness of the materials also in endu-
rance tests.
• Proof of adequately high mechanical properties for
corresponding temperatures.
• Test on safety against bursting and blow-out (2.5 x PN).
• Proof of a controlled and consistently high quality
production output at the manufacturer´s site.
The analysis by the TÜV Süddeutschland on the GYLON
material for flat gaskets has yielded the results summari-
sed in the table below and it has been determined that
GYLON is, for the stated operating parameters and
when used in connection with flat flanges according to
DIN 2635 Form C, of high quality in accordance with the
testing programme of the Institute for Plastics in the sense
of “TA-Luft” (Clean Air Regulations).

HELICOFLEX® / CEFIL’AIR®

HELICOFLEX® Resilient Metal Seal

The HELICOFLEX® seal was developed in close co-ope-
ration with the French Nuclear Energy Board (CEA) and
has been subjected to long and intensive studies. It is a
flexible O-ring made of metal which is highly resilient.
This system represents an entirely new approach to the
concept of pure metal seals. The highly favourable com-
pression and resilience behaviour of the HELICOFLEX®
seal are almost comparable to rubber seal properties
whereby the typical characteristics of the metal seal are
maintained. HELICOFLEX® seals are preferably employed Before tightening

in the case of static axial sealing in connection with

flanged joints.

After tightening

CEFIL’AIR® Inflatable Seals

To seal moving components which need to be separated
or sealed frequently, the use of inflatable seals represents
the simplest, safest and most efficient solution.
The CEFIL’AIR® seals which are inflatable and releasable
by means of a pneumatic drive have been developed
for various applications. In comparison to other inflatable
seals, CEFIL’AIR® seals may be employed in a wider
range of applications owing to their special design and
the manufacturing process which is based on the tech-
nology and the high quality elastomer materials.

Pump Packing: 8093 DSA and Packing Style 1304

DSA = Dry running, Self Adjusting

Step with Garlock into the 3rd generation of sealing technology for rotary
pump service, featuring the combination of mechanical seal and braided
packing properties.

When compressing the DSA set the cup and cone rings expand radially to
form a positive seal against both the shaft and the housing. Based on the
sophisticated geometry DSA requires less axial load than other common
packing solutions. DSA offers reduced costs in maintenance service. The fle-
xible graphite rings are very efficient in conducting heat away from the shaft,
therefore equipment runs cooler. Various combinations against almost every
media can be realized by using different packing styles.
Our 8093 DSA set is the technically preferred solution, however, when spool
stock is required style 1304 would be the best alternative.

KLOZURE Oil Seals and PS-SEAL

Garlock KLOZURE Oil Seals

Tough seals for tough jobs - Garlock radial lip KLOZURE
oil seals. Wherever shafts rotate there is a KLOZURE oil
seal engineered specifically for the application - whether
it is retaining lubricants, excluding contaminents or to
seperate fluids. KLOZURE oil seals are widely used in
both maintenance and in original equipment.

KLOZURE radial lip oil seals - more sizes to ensure lon-

ger life and cut maintenance costs.

Garlock PS-SEAL
Garlock GYLON PS lip material has shown outstanding
results in radial shaft sealing since 1960.

Whenever operating parameters go beyond the capabi-

lities of elastomeric oil-seals whether it is pressure, speed
or chemical resistance, the PS-SEAL solves the problem.
For example the PS-SEAL floating seal device is widely
used as sealing device in mixers, dryers and agitators,
where shaft movements exceed the limits of any other
sealing device.

PS-SEAL Floating Seal Device

PS-SEAL Floating Seal Device

The PS-SEAL Floating Seal Device is a customized solu-
tion for rotating shafts with excessive radial movement.
The principle ensures that the sealing assembly follows
any shaft movement. This is achieved by the flexible
connector installed between the shaft seal and the
equipment. PS-SEAL Floating Seal Devices have success-
fully sealed mixers, agitators and other equipment with
shaft deflection greater than other seals can absorbe.

For engineering assistance please contact Garlock to

obtain an application data sheet.
