Application

A flexible sealing sheet that easily adapts to the curves and irregularities of flanges.

Particularly recommended for water and steam systems, in heating, power generation and municipal services.

The sheet is resistant to brake and coolant fluids, making it suitable for use in the automotive sector as well.

Material

The GAMBIT AF-300 gasket sheet is manufactured from:

• KEVLAR® aramid fibres
• mineral fibres
• fillers

The components are bound together by a binder based on a blend of NBR, IR and SBR rubbers.
