Asbestos Rubber Gasket
Asbestos Rubber Gasket
Warning about Asbestos materials
Asbestos was used for several different products in the past because of its insulation and fire-resistant nature. The health risks of asbestos became apparent as people started reporting it as the cause of several severe illnesses. The government requires that any products that contain asbestos must be labelled and used infrequently. Recognition of asbestos-containing products, such as gaskets, is a vital step to replacing them with non-asbestos alternatives.
Description
From high quality asbestos fiber, natural rubber, fillers, coloring agents and refined. Widely used in industrial fields, is a economy sealing gasket material, according to working conditions choosed the appropriate level of model, Asbestos gaskets can be used for most medium usings applications. This kind of gasket can also be used for high pressures. Sometimes, we could insert some reinforced material. Such as graphie, metal wire, tanged sheet. Also this asbestos gasket compressd with rubber material to be sheets. The sealing property is also based on the rubber material. NBR - suitable for oils, gas, mild chemicals and water SBR - suitable for saturated Steam, mild chemicals inert gas and water Neoprene - suitable for saturated steam, refrigerants, oils, fuels, mild acids and alkalies and water. EPDM - suitable for saturated steam, mild chemicals and water
Different grade of asbestos gaskets included
Low Pressure Asbestos Gasket(KXT-1500): It is made from white chrysotile fibre.It is suitable for the sealing condition of most low
temperature and low pressure.It is used to seal steam,water power,gas plant,oil and other neutral medium.
Medium Pressure Asbestos Gasket(KXT-1510): It is used to seal steam,water power,gas plant,oil and other neutral medium.
High Pressure Asbestos Gasket(KXT-1520): It is used to seal steam,water power,gas plant,oil and other neutral medium.
Oil Proof Asbestos Gasket(KXT-1530):It is used to seal steam,water power,gas plant,oil and other neutral medium.
Application of Asbestos Rubber Gasket: It is used in flange or equipment in the chemical plant, electric power plant, paper factory, oil refining, pharmaceutical factory, food industry, mechanical manufacturing, ect.

Protective Guiding Instructions
1 Put on protective clothing and breathing equipment to avoid unnecessary contact with asbestos. Wet the area that contains, or is believed to contain, asbestos. This will help to prevent the asbestos fibres from becoming airborne.
2 Locate the area of the gasket and note the colour. Gaskets that contain asbestos are coloured white, black or dark grey. The gasket will also have a fibrous texture to it. If you are looking for a gasket in a machine or appliance, do not rely on the manufactured date that is printed on it, as it may have had maintenance or service work where the gasket was changed.
3 Replace the gasket with a non-asbestos one. These kinds of gaskets are blue, green or metallic in colour.
4 Take care to collect and properly dispose of asbestos waste, debris and equipment used around the asbestos, and any clothing that you wore while in contact with asbestos fibres. Double-bag any waste in distinctly coloured containers for quick identification.
