Kamlock™ FEP/PFA Encapsulated Gaskets

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™ /FKM rubber is protected by an encapsulation of FEP, providing extreme chemical and high temperature resistance.

Vulcan Seals encapsulated gaskets, Kamlock™ seals, are designed as universal, non-contaminating hose coupling seals. They eliminate the need to specify different elastomers for different applications and eliminate coupling leakage through seal gasket failure, due to chemical attack or creep of solid Teflon® gasket seals. Vulcan Seals Kamlock™ seals provide a superior seal for any bulk liquid transfer coupling in manufacturing, distribution or storage. Manufactured to our own exacting production requirements, ensuring optimum reliability in all your applications.

Why Choose Vulcan Seals Kamlock™ Gaskets FEP / PFA Encapsulated Products?

• 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 1935/2004 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

What are the main features of the Vulcan Seals Kamlock™ Gaskets FEP / PFA Encapsulated Products?

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

• Universal cam and groove hose coupling seal

• Extreme chemical resistance

• Wide temperature range -60°C to 205°C (-75°F to 400°F)

• Non-contaminating

• Large size range

Material Options

Encapsulation: FEP

Inner core: Silicone or Viton™/FKM

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