SLADE PYROTEX WOVEN GASKET SHEET
SS FOIL REINFORCED FLEXIBLE EXPANDED GRAPHITE GASKET CAN HANDLE HIGH THERMAL CYCLING APPLICATIONS
Location: Texas
Date: April 1999
Industry: Processing Plant
Application:
Crossover Turbine in a coal-fired power plant operating at of 5370C and pressures range from 21 to 70 kg/cm².
Situation:
This plant used old-style asbestos gaskets due to its exceptional ability to handle the high temperature and pressure rating.
- It worked but it was a health hazard.



SLADE’S SOLUTION
SLADE PyroTex Woven Gasket is chemically inert and poses no health hazards.
SLADE PryoTex Woven Gasket Sheet was used. It can be cut to size and shape at the site using a shear cutter.
It easily handles the temperature extremities and pressure range.
It is chemically inert and does not pose any health hazard as the asbestos-based gasket would.
It can be used even on mating flanges faces that are slightly oxidised or pitted.
It is more reliable and maintenance-free sealing.
