AFM 37

AFM 37 is an asbestos-free gasket material. It is composed of aramide fibers and other asbestos substitutes that are resistant to high temperatures. These substitutes are processed with high-grade elastomers under elevated pressure and temperature.

Properties:

AFM 37 is an ecomomical gasket material. It exhibits good sealability in contact with gases and fluids, combined with good conformability. The material’s thermal resistance is very good

Application:

  • for sealed joints that are subjected to moderate operating pressures, e.g. in transformers, compressors, pipelines, apparatus and IC engines.
  • for sealing transmission, hydraulic, refrigerating, and engine oils
  • for sealing fuels, mixtures of water, antifreeze & corrosion inhibitors
  • for sealing Freons, alkaline solutions and solvents

Surfaces:

As standard, both sides of AFM 37 are coated with a non-stick, high-friction layer that greatly facilitates disassembly. In most cases, additional surface treatment is unnecessary.

Approvals:

DVGW  / Grade Y  / Germanischer Lloyd (DNV GL)
