Material composition:
TEADIT expanded graphite sheets are produced from pure,
expanded flexible graphite and do not contain any other
fibers or filler materials.
Properties:
TEADIT expanded flexible graphite sheets are universally
applicable for gases and fluids. They are chemically
resistant against most media, have excellent thermal
conductivity, can be stored indefinitely, do not need
anti-stick coating and are extremely resistant to
temperature cycles.
Application areas:
Because of its specific structure expanded graphite
sheets are particularly suited for applications with
extremely high or low temperatures, with highly corrosive
and aggressive media, for sensitive flange materials (i.e.
enamel, glass, plastic) and for gas and steam applications.
Technical data:
Temperature range: - 240° C up to 450 ° C,
with steam up to 650 °C,in non-oxidizing atmosphere up to
800°C
pH range: 0 - 14
max. pressure: 70 bar
carbon content: > 98 %
chloride content: < 30 ppm
sulphur content: < 1000 ppm
density (graphite): 1g/cm3
compressibility: 40 - 50 %
recovery: 10 - 25 %
residual stress: > 45 N/mm2
Product standard:
sheet size (in mm): 1.000 x 1.000
thickness (in mm): 1,0 / 1,5 / 2,0 and 3,0
The following styles of TEADIT expanded graphite
sheets are available:
TEADIT GP 1520: pure expanded flexible graphite.
TEADIT GE 1520/SS304: pure expanded flexible graphite with
tanged metal insert in SS304 (0,1mm)
TEADIT GE 1520/SS316: pure expanded flexible graphite with
tanged metal insert in SS316 (0,1mm)
TEADIT GR 1520: pure expanded flexible graphite with plain
metal insert in SS316 (0,05mm)
Because graphite sheets are fragile and therefore difficult
to handle, we recommend the use of styles with metal
insertions. All styles are available with or without
impregnation.
