All information and recommendations given in this brochure are correct to the best of our knowledge .
However , in view of the wide variety of possible installation and operating conditions one cannot draw the final
conclusion in all application cases regarding the behavior in a gasket joint . Therefore , information can only serve as a guideline.
Superlite® SUPERLITE ASBESTOS FREE GP-150
Gasket material based on organic fibre with
NBR binder.
General purpose grade suitable for low pressure steam,
water, oils, fuels and inert gases for low stress conditions.
The suitability of a gasket material for an
application is dependent upon a multiplicity of
factors as shown in the above digram. Max.
temperature and pressure values can not define
the suitability for application. It is always
advisable to consider these factors when
selecting a material for a given application.
This area refer , the gasket material is normally suitable
subject to chemical compatibility.
This area refer, the gasket material may be suitable but a
technical support is recommended.
This area refer, do not install the gasket without technical
evaluation.
