points the way to the right gasketfor the job

Subject to technical alterations. Status: October 2002

Certified according to DIN EN ISO 9000:2000.

For discontinuous operations inwater and/or steam applications, we recommend as a general guide asurface pressure of about 30 MPa. In such cases the gasket should be as thin as is practicable.

For reasons of safety, we advise against the re-use of gaskets.

Dimensions of the standard sheetsSizes:1,000 x 1,500 mm, 1,500 x 2,000 mmThicknesses:0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm,3.0 mm;other thicknesses on request.

Tolerances:thickness ± 10%, length ± 50 mm,width ± 50 mm

Important points to be observedThe selection of gaskets requiresexpertise and know-how since evergreater reliability coupled with thelowest possible leakage rates aredemanded of gasket materials.

The exacting demands made onthe tightness of gasket materials (e.g.Tightness class L0.01) mean that withincreasing internal pressure highersurface pressures must be applied tothe gasket.

It must be shown that the flangejoint will tolerate the demands madeon it without being mechanicallyoverloaded. Furthermore, the surfacepressure applied to create the sealshould never fall below the requiredminimum value since this will reducethe life of the gasket. Highly stressed,but not overstressed gaskets have alonger life than understressed gaskets.

If the gasket fitted will be subjected to non-static loading, orwill suffer stress fluctuations duringdiscontinuous operation, it is advisable to choose a gasket which is not prone to embrittlement with increasing temperature (e.g.KLINGERgraphite laminate orKLINGERtop-chem), especially for steam and/or water applications.

* Gaskets according to DIN 2690 are only standardised up to PN 40

The many and varied demandsmade on gasketsThe successful operation of a gasketdepends upon a multiplicity of factors.Many who use static gaskets believethat the values quoted for maximumadmissible temperature and maximumoperating pressure are inherent properties or characteristics of gaskets and gasket materials.

If your operating temperaturesand pressures fall within this field, a technical examination is normallyunnecessary.. If your operating temperaturesand pressures are within this field, a technical examination is recommended.

If your operating temperaturesand pressures are within this “open“field, a technical examination isalways necessary.

Unfortunately, this is not thecase.The maximum temperatures and pressures at which gaskets may beused are influenced by a large number of factors.

Therefore a definite statement ofthese values for gasket material is notpossible.

So why does Klinger provide pT diagrams?For the reasons given the pT diagramis not infallible: it serves as a roughguide for the end user who often hasonly the operating temperatures andpressures to go on.

Additional stresses such asgreatly fluctuating load may significantly affect whether a gasket is suitable for the application.

Resistance to media must betaken into account in every case.

The fields of decision

Klinger cold/hot compressionWith this test method developed byKlinger you can evaluate the cold/hotcompression of a gasket in cold andhot condition.

Unlike the method acc. to DIN52913 and BS 7531, the surface loadis kept constant during the completetest so that the gasket is exposed tomuch tougher conditions.

The thickness decrease at anambient temperature of 23°C and atheating up to 200°C is measured.

The indicated thickness decreaseat 200°C refers to the thickness obtained after loading at 23°C.
