BPG 9451 IE

Properties
BPG 9451 IE Corrugated Metal Gaskets (CMG) are constructed from a corrugated stainless steel insert with flat graphite foil layers applied to both sides and an inner eyelet. This design combines strength with flexibility, providing excellent resilience and reliable sealing performance under varying operating conditions.
Applications
Due to its high compressibility and good resilience, BPG 9451 IE is suitable for thermal cycling conditions in petrochemical, oil and gas, process, chemical and power plant industries, especially for heat exchangers, pumps, valves and compressors.
