Encapsulated Kamlock™ Gaskets

Superior Gasket Quality

Vulcan Seals gaskets are produced to be the highest quality available in the market. We have eliminated common product issues found in the market, guaranteeing a consistent fit and reliable performance.

• Minimal encapsulation-to-core gap – reducing the potential for encapsulation damage
• Superior gasket flatness – ensuring even contact across the sealing surface
• Smooth sealing surface – free from warps and kinks to ensure no potential leak paths
• Exceptional chemical resistance – a cost-efficient replacement for FFKM seals for aggressive chemicals

What are Encapsulated Kamlock™ Gaskets?

Encapsulated gaskets by Vulcan Seals for the universal sealing of cam and groove hose couplings.

The rectangular cross-section inner core of silicone or Viton^™ rubber is protected by an encapsulation of FEP, providing extreme chemical and high temperature resistance.

Benefits

• No need to specify different elastomer materials for different applications
• Leak-free performance: low compression set and elastomer core energiser avoids cold flow leakage
• Easy installation and maintenance due to the non-stick surface with low coefficient of friction
• Sanitary, sterilisable and FDA / EC specification compliant encapsulation
• Superior seal for bulk liquid transfer couplings in manufacturing, distribution or storage
• Elimination of coupling leakage from chemical attack or creep issues, unlike traditional solid PTFE gaskets

Material Options

White silicone elastomer core is also available, with the same physical properties and sealing performance as a red silicone core, for operation temperatures from -60°C (-75°F) to +205°C (+400°F)

The white colour is ideal for use in pharmaceutical, hygienic and sanitary applications, where red silicone may not be suitable. Contact us to discuss any demand requirements.
