Flat Gaskets for Industry, Machinery and Pipelines

Flat Gaskets – Reliable Sealing for Static Connections

Flat gaskets are flat sealing elements that are installed between two predominantly even sealing surfaces. When the connected components are compressed together, the gasket adapts to the surfaces and closes possible gaps or irregularities. This helps prevent liquids, gases or other media from escaping from a connection or penetrating from the outside.

Typical applications can be found in pipelines, flange connections, valves, pumps, engines, gearboxes, machines and industrial systems. Depending on the material and design, flat gaskets can be used for different media as well as for various temperature, pressure and environmental conditions.

At diconfa, you can find flat gaskets for professional applications in industry, trade, maintenance and repair. In addition to flat gaskets made from high-quality fibre material, the range also includes flange gaskets and standardized DIN gaskets made from rubber.

Which Flat Gaskets Does diconfa Offer?

The suitable flat gasket depends on the design of the connection, the medium to be sealed and the respective operating conditions. Within this category, you can find different versions for various technical requirements.

AFM30 Flat Gaskets Made from Asbestos-Free Fibre Material

AFM30 is a high-performance, asbestos-free fibre material for demanding technical sealing applications. The material is characterized by high mechanical strength as well as good pressure and temperature resistance.

AFM30 flat gaskets are suitable, among other things, for use on machines, engines, gearboxes, pumps, compressors and valves as well as in hydraulic, pneumatic and piping systems. Depending on the respective operating conditions, they can be used to seal different liquid and gaseous media.

The flat gaskets are available in various sizes and material thicknesses. This allows the required gasket to be selected to match the existing connection and the specific installation situation.

Flange Gaskets for Piping and Plant Connections

Flange gaskets belong to the group of flat gaskets. They are positioned between two bolted flanges and provide a permanently sealed connection. Their ring-shaped geometry is matched to the inner and outer diameter of the respective flange connection.

In our subcategory Flange Gaskets you can find versions for pipelines, heating and sanitary systems, machines, valves and industrial plants. Depending on the product, different diameters, nominal sizes, material thicknesses and bolt-hole patterns are available.

DIN Gaskets in Standardized Dimensions

DIN gaskets are flat gaskets whose dimensions comply with a specified standard. This makes them particularly easy to select and use for standardized flange connections.

The subcategory DIN Gaskets includes, among other things, flange gaskets according to DIN 2690. The standardized inner and outer diameters make selection easier for existing piping and flange systems and reduce the effort required for repair, replacement or new installation.

Flat Gaskets Made from Fibre Material and Rubber

Choosing the right material is crucial for the reliable performance of a flat gasket. Not every material is equally suitable for water, oils, fuels, gases, chemicals or high temperatures.

Fibre Flat Gaskets

Fibre gaskets such as AFM30 are primarily used for technically demanding applications. They offer high dimensional stability and mechanical strength and are suitable for numerous applications in mechanical engineering, engine construction, apparatus engineering and plant engineering.

Asbestos-free fibre materials combine stable fibres with suitable binders. This creates a durable sealing material that adapts to the surfaces to be sealed under surface pressure.

Flat Gaskets Made from EPDM

EPDM is an elastic rubber material with good resistance to water, hot water, weathering, ozone and UV radiation. Flat gaskets made from EPDM are therefore often used in water pipes, heating and sanitary systems as well as in outdoor applications.

Whether EPDM is suitable for a specific application, however, always depends on the medium, temperature, pressure and other operating conditions.

Flat Gaskets Made from SBR and Other Rubber Materials

SBR and corresponding solid rubber compounds are used for numerous general sealing applications. The material is elastic, mechanically durable and economical. It is suitable, for example, for water, air and applications without contact with oils or fuels.

For special media or increased loads, the material selection must be checked individually.
