Description
Responding to customer demands for an improved material with strong anti-corrosion characteristics Flexitallic has created Corriculite® – a filler material for spiral wound gaskets specifically designed for use in corrosion-sensitive environments, such as seawater and hydrocarbon services, across a number of industries, including oil and gas, power and marine.
This revolutionary, non-conductive filler material provides sealing performance and corrosion resistance unlike any other gasket material on the market. Comparative tests show Corriculite® delivers corrosion protection and sealing properties that far exceed other materials currently available.
Conventional graphite gaskets for instance, promote the initiation and propagation of corrosion of flanges due to graphite’s electrical conductivity and position in the galvanic series, leading to premature failure and leakage.
