Flexicarb LS
| Flexicarb is a pure exfoliated graphite material exhibiting excellent sealing characteristics, withstanding a wide range of temperatures, pressures and chemicals. | |
| This homogeneous material is free of respirable fibers, binders and additives. Standard grades are 95% to 98% pure, with a nuclear grade available at 99.9% purity. | |
| Flexicarb is extremely conformable giving it the ability to flow into flange surface imperfections. Its low permeability and chemical resistance make it an ideal choice as a sealing material. | |
| The high purity of Flexicarb is chemically inert to most media. (Note its limitations on oxidizing compounds.) | |
| Flexicarb covers a wide temperature spectrum, from cryogenics through elevated temperatures. It can be supplied with an inorganic passivating inhibitor to increase its oxidation and corrosion resistance. Recent experiences and tests have shown that Flexicarb will oxidize over time. Care should be taken when considering the use of Flexicarb foil for applications above 330°C (650°F). |

Flexicarb ST
Flexicarb tanged steel reinforced graphite is a laminate sheet material of
graphite foil layers mechanically bonded to a 0.1 mm (0.004”) thick 316
stainless steel tanged core. The core enhances the mechanical strength of the
graphite foil. Flexicarb ST is suitable for sealing steam, water, gasses,
hydrocarbons, alkalis and chemicals. It is not recommended for use on
glass-lined, bronze or aluminum flanges.
