DASAH00620 8 in AV EPDM Full Face Gasket (...)

Asahi/America® Low Torque Full Face AV Gasket, 150 lb. Gasket, 8 in Nominal, 7.8 in ID, 13.4 in OD, EPDM, 150 lb Pressure Class, -40 to 195 deg F, 65 to 70 Durometer, 8-Bolt Holes, 41 ft-lb Bolt Torque, For Use With: Thermoplastic Valves

Asahi valve gaskets offer a unique double convex ring design that gives optimum sealing with only 1/3 the torque commonly required with flat faced gaskets. Asahi/America offers EPDM gaskets from 1/2″ to 12″; PTFE-bonded EPDM gaskets in sizes from 1/2″ to 12″; and PVDF-bonded EPDM gaskets from 1/2″ to 10″. AV low torque gaskets provide a bubble tight seal for flanged valve and piping connections. They feature a small bolt torque requirement for ease of installation and for accommodating a variety of thermoplastic valves, piping and fittings. All styles include two molded concentric sealing rings for confident sealing abilities. The sulfur-cured rubber is made to fit with flat faced flanges and is available with either a PVDF or PTFE laminated sealing surface for aggressive chemical or high purity installations.
