Tensograph sheets type M1
Reinforced graphite sheets М1
Graphite sheets TENSOGRAPH® type М1 are manufactured using whole range of TENSOGRAPH® graphite foils followed by further reinforcement with a 0.05 mm (.002") thick plain 316 stainless steel insert bonded with the use of adhesive layer for improved handling and mechanical strength. Sheets provide great chemical resistance, high elasticity and thermal stability and are recommended for basic sealing applications including steam.
