When it comes to gasket technology, few names are as trusted and respected as Klinger®. With a legacy dating back to 1886, Klinger® gaskets have become synonymous with quality, reliability, and safety across industries worldwide. Designed as the ideal replacement for asbestos-based gaskets, Klinger® materials deliver superior sealing performance without compromising on safety or durability
What Makes Klinger® Gaskets Special
Klinger® gaskets are engineered to perform under demanding conditions. Their compressed fibre materials were developed as a direct replacement for asbestos, providing excellent resistance to heat, pressure, and chemicals – all while being 100% safe for human contact. Many grades also comply with BS7531 standards, ensuring consistent quality and performance across applications.
These gaskets are widely used in critical industries such as:
- Aerospace
- Chemical processing
- Energy and power generation
- Marine and offshore
- Oil & Gas
- Pharmaceutical and manufacturing
Whether sealing steam lines, chemical flanges, or high-pressure equipment, Klinger® provides a reliable and long-lasting solution.
Safe and Effective Asbestos Replacement
Traditional asbestos gaskets offered strength and thermal resistance, but at the cost of safety. Klinger® solved this challenge with materials that match, and often exceed, the performance of asbestos gaskets without the health risks. Their non-asbestos composition ensures complete safety for users, while offering excellent mechanical stability and thermal endurance.
Wide Range of High-Performance Materials
Klinger® offers an impressive selection of gasket materials designed for specific performance needs:
- Laminated Graphite Gaskets – Ideal for high-temperature and high-pressure applications.
- PTFE-Based Grades (Top-Chem Series) – Delivering ultimate chemical resistance against strong acids and alkalis, with pressures up to 150 bars.
- Fibre-Reinforced Klingersil® Grades – Versatile and reliable for sealing oils, steam, water, and chemicals.
- High-Temperature Gaskets – Capable of withstanding temperatures above 500°C and up to 1000°C.
This versatility ensures there’s a Klinger® gasket solution for nearly any sealing challenge.
Exceptional Chemical Resistance
One of the standout features of Klinger® gaskets is their excellent chemical compatibility. The Top-Chem PTFE range is perfect for aggressive chemical environments, while Klingersil® materials offer dependable resistance to oils, steam, and industrial fluids. This makes them suitable for use in chemical plants, refineries, and power stations where reliability is critical.
A Reliable, Cost-Effective Sealing Solution
Beyond performance, Klinger® gaskets also contribute to efficiency and sustainability. Their precision-engineered design provides tight, reliable sealing and thermal insulation, which:
- Reduces energy loss and operational costs
- Prevents leaks and unplanned downtime
- Extends the lifespan of equipment
- Lowers maintenance requirements
