Compressed Fiber Sheet
Made for your application.
The SF and AF products are fiber reinforced, polymer bound, calendared sheet materials made using traditional manufacturing techniques. A wide range of organic and inorganic fibers is used in conjunction with a polymer matrix to provide the appropriate degree of chemical compatibility and sealing performance.
Thermiculite 715 Fiber Sheet
Manufactured with non oxidizing fiber with a higher required seating stress, ensuring good load bearing properties. It facilitates proper installation by maintaining flexibilty. Non-contaminating, good chemical resistance and fire safe.

SF 1630
A low cost mineral filled calendered sheet material, containing cellulose and glass fiber reinforcements. This material was developed to suit low pressure, non critical applications.
SF 2420
SF 2420 is a high quality aramid fiber reinforced sheet with SBR binder, excellent for sealing steam, water, gases, oils, mild solvents and/or alkalis.The data given below is based on 1/32” sheet, except as otherwise noted.
SF 3300
A premium quality sheet material reinforced with a blend of aramid and glass fibers and bound with nitrile rubber. SF 3300 complies with the highest grade of the British Standard for non-asbestos sheet sealing materials - BS 7531 Grade X. For applications in split case pumps where a thin, complex gasket capable of withstanding a high surface stress is required, SF 3500, a variant of SF 3300, has been developed. Where caustic liquors have to be sealed a variant of SF 3300 reinforced with a blend of aramid and carbon fibers is offered: this material, SF 5000 is widely used in the pulp and paper industry.
SF 3500
SF 3500 is a superior performance compressed non-asbestos gasket material ideal for use in pumps (including split case). It is constructed with glass and aramid fiber reinforcement, and it uses a NBR binder. The data given below is based on a 1/64” sheet, except as otherwise noted.
SF 5000
SF 5000 is an NBR based, non-asbestos sheet sealing material, reinforced with carbon and aramid fibers. SF 5000 is suitable for use in a wide range of industrial applications including oils, fuels, steam, water and dilute acids. SF 5000 is especially suitable for sealing caustic liquors. Properties based on 1/32” thick material, except as otherwise noted.
Fluoroseal Joint Sealant Tape
Fluoroseal joint sealant tape is manufactured from 100% expanded PTFE. The material offers good creep and cold flow resistance. Fluoroseal possesses excellent chemical resistance. It is also weather resistant and will not deteriorate with age.
The sealant tape is supplied with a self adhesive strip and is available in a range of widths from 3mm (1/8”) to 25mm (1”). It conforms easily to irregular shapes and can be pushed into narrow openings effortlessly.
