Main Advantages Temperature Wide range of thermoset polymers and blends are used ranging from SBR, NBR, EVA, ECO, ACM and VMQ to obtain specific temperature resistance. Material's tolerance to extreme surface finishings, such as “as cast”, or high out-of flatness flanges, such as stamped steel and plastic covers. Gasket Sealing area Fastener Fewer and lower grade fasteners allow for lower bolt torques due to material's low load to seal. Stress ranges and reduced side flow allow choice of materials to customize sealing areas. Medium Designed to resist oils, fuels, gases and other lubricants...
