The clamp gaskets are used with dead space free clamp connections according to DIN 32676. The gasket is positioned between two stainless steel flanges, which are enclosed by a clamping ring. All sizes are in DIN- ISO- and Inch design on offer, from DN 6 up to DN 300 as well as from ¼" up to 4". The following materials are available: EPDM, VMQ, FKM, PTFE, and PTFE-FKM enveloped. All medium touched materials are compliant with FDA. Some of the clamp gaskets accomplish additionally the requests according to USP-class VI and TA Luft (German environmental standard). Certificates of conformity are supplied on request.

The gaskets are executed as form gaskets and have two ring bulges opposite to each other on the side surfaces. The clamp gaskets for flanges with a diameter of at least 34 mm have except for some a flange enclosing collar. During assembly the collar encompasses one of the flanges, whereby the clamp gasket is self-kept positioned. Thereby one of the ring bulges engages with a ring groove of the flange. Then the other flange is put against, whereby the other ring bulge of the clamp gasket engages with the ring groove of the other flange, so that both flanges are coaxially centred. While closing the clamping ring the flanges press hard against the gasket, so that an always tight clamp connection is guaranteed.

Depending on the chosen material the gaskets can be used with working temperatures from -200 °C up to +260 °C. The clamp gaskets are particularly employed in processes with fluid media e.g. milk, beer, wine, fruit juices etc. They are preferentially applied in the biotechnology as well as in the beverage, food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and chemical industry. The comprehensive stock-keeping ensures delivery on short notice.
