KLINGER top-chem 2000: Universal gasket material for high surface pressures at simultaneous high temperatures KLINGER top-chem 2000 offers the advantages of PTFE gaskets without the disadvantages commonly associated with PTFE materials. This allows you to use these materials in applications where traditionally they are unsuitable, saving you maintenance time and improving plant safety. Advantages in the use of KLINGER top-chem 2000 With KLINGER top-chem 2000 the high relaxation typical of standard filled PTFE gaskets is not observed. At a load of and a temperature of 200 C the relaxation of this material is only just 2. This ensures that bolt forces are maintained even under severe conditions. Therefor it is not necessary to retighten the bolts and the risk of increasing the leakage through loss in surface pressure is minimized. This behaviour is unique in the world of PTFE gaskets and can just be achieved with the use of KLINGER top-chem 2000. Material characteristics The universal heavy-duty gasket for an extremely wide range of applications in the chemical and petrochemical industries as well as in the shipbuilding industry for chemical tanker applications. Due to its unique load bearing properties it is able to withstand high temperatures and pressures and it is the only PTFE gasket with a Fire Safe Certificate. It is also the first choice in the food sector and in the pharmaceutical industry, for steam applications and in oxygen pipes and where special requirements are made acc. to TA Luft (German Clean Air regulation).

KLINGER top-chem: A complete sealing package for safe performance KLINGER top-chem offer the advantages of PTFE gaskets without the disadvantages commonly associated with PTFE materials. This allows you to use these materials in applications where traditionally they are unsuitable, saving you maintenance time and improving plant safety. 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 gaskets material is not possible. The Complex Demands on a Gasket 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. Ask your local KLINGER Dealer for more informations and samples of KLINGER top-chem products
