Technical Properties
Property Value Technical Meaning
Material Density
DIN 28090-2
1.7g/cm³ High density aramid fibre matrix ensures robust sealing performance under load.1
Compressibility
ASTM F36J
11% Good conformability to flange surface irregularities under bolt load.2
Elastic Recovery
ASTM F36J
60% High recovery ensures seal integrity under thermal cycling and dynamic loading.2
Tensile Strength
ASTM F152
12MPa High mechanical strength ensures gasket integrity under demanding installation and service conditions.3
Residual Stress
DIN 52913 · 175°C / 16h
27MPa Retains sealing force under heat and load. 23 MPa at 300°C — reducing re-torque needs.4
Specific Leak Rate
DIN 3535-6
0.02mg/s·m
@ 2.0 mm
Very low leak rate — excellent for emission-controlled and gas service applications.5
Thickness Increase
ASTM F146 · Oil IRM 903 / Fuel B
Oil 2%
Fuel 5%
Oil IRM 903 (150°C, 5h) / Fuel B (23°C, 5h) — low swell confirms dimensional stability.6
