Easy processing thanks to flat metal
novaphit® 400 is the perfect solution for very fine gasket geometries with narrow gasket widths. This effective gasket sheet made from high-quality pure graphite is reinforced with an acid-resistant stainless steel flat metal insert to give it exceptionally good processing characteristics: novaphit® 400 can even be cut to size with a utility knife. Low gasket thicknesses (from 0.5 mm) are also not a problem. This makes novaphit® 400 perfect for many OEM and process industry applications, e.g. in fittings, compressors, pump, valves, etc.
novaphit® 400 is superior to conventional tanged metal gasketsbecause of its flat metal insert optimally embedded in the graphite. It has the following advantages:
Production of thin gaskets (< 1 mm)
Simple production of complex geometries (especially narrow gasket widths)
No risk of injury from burrs that can result from processing
No contact corrosion at the flange surfaces due to projecting metal
No delamination during processing – even with complex geometries
High performance and excellent value
The thicknesses 0.5 and 0.75 mm can optionally be equipped with XP technology.
