FLEXIBLE GRAPHITE SEALING JOINT WITH METAL JACKET FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE

摘要

The invention concerns a joint designed to be used at high temperature. It mainly consists of a central core in flexible graphite (10) with its shape being maintained by two metal cups (12) not in contact with each other. The whole assembly is enclosed in a sealed jacket (15) to maintain the flexible core (10) under neutral atmosphere such as partial depression or a neutral gas.
