Kamm Profile Gasket
The Kammprofile is preferred Gasket when improved performance at low seating stresses is required. It features excellent anti-blowout properties associated with the reliability of a solid metal-to-metal seal combined with soft sealing face to ensure a tighter joint. Kammprofile is an ideal replacement for problem applications associated with Jacketed Gaskets.
Specification
Genereral properties

 - Easy to handle and fit.
 - Suitable for a wide range of operating conditions.
 - The soft facing layer prevents damage to the flange.
 - Provide a high integrity seal including thermocycling and shock loading conditions.
 - High blow out resistance.
 - Reduced emissions.
 - Not sensitive to uneven bolt loading conditions.
 - Can be refurbished with a new facing layer and reused.
 - Different shapes available.
 - More tolerant to smooth and or damaged flange sealing faces.
 - Kamm profiles can be manufactured with narrow seal land widths.
 
Applications
- Heat exchanger and vessel applications
