FAQs

A mica gasket is a high-temperature and chemically resistant sealant made from mica sheets, used in industrial applications to prevent leaks and provide insulation between stationary components.

Seals are designed for dynamic systems where movement occurs, while gaskets are used between stationary parts to prevent leakage, primarily under compression.

The three main types are metallic, semi-metallic, and non-metallic gaskets, each suiting different pressure, temperature, and chemical conditions.

Mica gaskets have excellent compression characteristics, allowing them to maintain integrity and provide effective sealing under various pressure conditions without significant degradation or loss in performance.
