Product Description
Product Description
Flange Weld-On Graphite Gasket
A graphite gasket designed for welded flange connections where high-temperature sealing is critical. This gasket material handles thermal cycling and pressure without degrading. Ideal for exhaust systems, turbo manifolds, and header work where traditional gaskets fail.
Key Features
- Graphite Core - Withstands thermal shock and repeated heating cycles without loss of seal integrity
- Weld-Compatible Design - Bonds securely when welded directly to flange surfaces
- Zero Blow-Out Risk - Self-locking at high pressures; no creep or degradation over time
Specs
- Material: Graphite
- Application: Weld-on flange gasket
- Construction: Solid sheet stock
Whats Included
- Flange weld-on graphite gasket sheet
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I re-use this gasket after welding if I remove it?
No. Once welded, the gasket bonds permanently to the flange. You'll need a fresh piece for any future disassembly. Plan your flange work carefully before committing to the weld.
Do I need to prep the flange surface before welding the gasket on?
Clean bare metal works best—remove rust, paint, and oil from both flange faces. The graphite bonds directly to steel, so surface condition directly affects seal quality.
Will this gasket work on cast iron manifolds?
Yes. Graphite bonds equally well to cast iron and steel. Verify the manifold surface is clean and flat enough to seat the gasket fully before welding.
