NAVY TANK (Cod. 4172)

Description

Cod. 4172

This is a flexible seal made of a hollow rubber core, which is protected by two layers of wear-resistant PTFE, surrounded by thick, angled polypropylene wadding, which is also protected by PTFE tape and further clad with a sleeve of braided PTFE tape. It is available in square and rectangular cross-sections, in rolls to be cut according to the length desired or in a vast range of preformed rings, ready to be mounted on chemical inspection hatches or tanks used for transport. The maximum operating temperature is 100°C. Navy Tank maintains its elasticity and efficacy for long periods, and guarantees a hermetic seal. Navy Tank’s considerable flexibility means it adapts perfectly to the slight irregularities on the groove surfaces of doors and covers. The exact dimensions of the groove should be calculated to achieve a hermetic seal. The tolerance value for the seal cross-section is between -1 and +2 mm.

Applications

Its principal application is as a seal in industrial tanks, in the naval, nuclear and petrochemical industries, in refineries, paper and sugar factories, and in the chemical industry.
