Durlon® Durtec® gaskets are made with a specially engineered corrugated metal core that is bonded on both sides with soft covering layers, typically fexible graphite. The core is produced by patented technology that allows the finished gasket to have the best possible mechanical support function. Corrugations in the Durtec™ core are virtually uncrushable unlike conventional corrugated metal core gaskets. The precision construction guarantees that Durlon® Durtec™ gaskets will have excellent sealing characteristics even under low bolt loads.
