TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
  • Cryogenic
  • LNG

This premium performance fire safe isolation gasket incorporates a coated metallic core housing a modified u-shaped PTFE seal energised with a phynox spring in a patented triple seal design.

Tested and approved by a third party test house to API 6FB 3rd Edition fire test, this product also significantly surpasses the fugitive emissions requirements of Shell MESC SPE 85/300 3.3.2 Class A.

On the inside and outside of this seal are two kammprofile sections, the inner is faced with James Walker's Fluolion 800 modified PTFE material, and the outer with DS Pro, a proprietary high temperature material. G11 GRE material is used to face the outer section of the metallic core.

Each Insolion FS flange isolation kit is supplied with G11 bolt sleeves and a unique washer combination consisting of a metallic washer and James Walker's specially modified high temperature material.

Insolion FS combines exceptional chemical compatibility and electrical isolation with the capability of maintaining sealing performance after API 6FB 3rd Edition fire test.
