Ceramic Firber Gasket

KSG Gasket is the name for the family of vacuum formed, semi-rigid products manufactured by Kumaran Shapes.

KSG Gasket products are manufactured using insulating fibres with a wide range of chemical and physical properties. Within the range there are two main product groups – Graph and Normal.

KSG Gasket Normal materials exhibit excellent flexibility and compressibility and provide lightweight insulation and sealing in many applications.

KSG Graph gasket uses a slightly different binder formulation to produce a material that is stiffer than KSG normal while maintaining excellent compressibility and flexibility. In addition, KSG Graph gasket has superior handling properties which make the GRAPH product particularly suited to cutting and shaping.

Typical applications include: pre-formed flexible shapes, gasket media, pre-cut shapes.

Ceramic fiber shapes are manufactured from refractory fibers. They are designed for use in application conditions requiring superior insulating properties combined with high rigidity and mechanical strength. The above shapes can be made to suit specific requirements.
