THE NEXT GENERATION IN EXTREME TEMPERATURE SEALING
THE NEXT GENERATION IN EXTREME TEMPERATURE SEALING
<<INNOVATION BY LEADER GASKET NOW BAM APPROVED FOR OXYGEN SERVICE>>
Leader Gasket’s newest innovation on extreme temperature solutions has received great interest in several markets!
LeaderTHERM
NXT is a modified phlogopite base material designed for critical
high-temperature services such as turbochargers, catalytic cracking
systems, power generation, gas boilers and equipment, and NOx containing
applications.
Due to the very low weight loss at high
temperatures (up to 1000°C/1832°F) of the modified phlogopite base
material, LeaderTHERM NXT offers not only being extremely temperature
resistant but also exhibit very low leakage in combination with
practically no loss of gasket seating stress.
LeaderTHERM NXT
exceeds in performance compared to other high-temperature materials in a
thermal cycling leakage test. Data studies are available upon request
exhibiting LeaderTHERM NXT sealing superiority.
Phlogopite is an
important and relatively common end-member composition of biotite.
Phlogopite micas are found primarily in igneous rocks, although it is
also common in contact metamorphic aureoles of intrusive igneous rocks
with magnesian country rocks and in marble formed from impure dolomite.
LeaderTHERM NXT also is an ideal alternative for graphite gaskets that are attacked by oxidation (>1000°C/1832°F).
TESTED AND PROVEN
BAM APPROVAL OXYGEN SERVICE AT HIGHEST TEST CONDITIONS
TA LUFT CERTIFICATION
Both LeaderTHERM NXT style 1000 Spiral Wound and style 1010 Kammprofile version are compliant with tightness criteria according TA Luft [10-4 mbar . l/(m . s)] as per Guideline VDI 2440 (Nov. 2000) and 2200 (June 2007) with rated high-grade srsling system for the purposes of TA Luft.
