Non-Asbestos PN10 IBC Gasket 3mm
When a bolted pipe joint fails, the consequences range from costly downtime to serious safety hazards. The Non-Asbestos PN10 IBC Gasket 3mm is engineered to prevent exactly that, delivering a reliable, compression tight seal across a wide range of industrial fluid and gas applications.
At 3mm thick, this compressed fibre ring seal is built to accommodate minor surface irregularities and uneven flange faces, compressing evenly under bolt load to eliminate leak paths that thinner gaskets might miss. Its Inner Bolt Circle (IBC) design fits neatly inside the flange bolt pattern, so no bolt holes are required, -simplifying installation and reducing the risk of misalignment on the job.
Rated for PN10 pressure systems (up to 10 bar), this gasket is fully compatible with standard European pipe flanges and handles a broad spectrum of media, including cold and hot water, low-pressure steam, oils, fuels, and mild gases. It performs reliably across water treatment facilities, chemical plants, and industrial heating systems alike.
Critically, it is manufactured from modern non-asbestos materials, typically aramid or mineral fibres bonded with rubber meeting current health and safety standards without compromising on sealing performance. For engineers and maintenance teams phasing out legacy asbestos components, it serves as a direct, code-compliant replacement.
Summary:
- Asbestos-free compressed fibre ring seal used between industrial pipe flanges rated for PN 10 pressure
- The IBC (Inner Bolt Circle) design means it sits entirely inside the flange bolts, sealing water, steam, oils, or gases
- Made from safe, modern non-asbestos materials (like aramid or mineral fibers bound with rubber) instead of old hazardous asbestos
- Built for standard European pipe flanges rated to handle up to 10 bar of nominal pressure
- Inner Bolt Circle (or ring style); the gasket ring fits inside the circle of the connecting bolts, meaning you do not need bolt holes cut into the gasket itself
- The thickness of the material, which helps it compress and fill minor gaps or uneven spots on older or rough flange faces
Applications:
Common applications include;
- Sealing bolted pipe joints in water treatment
- Chemcial plants and heating systems
- Handling general utility fluids like cold/hot water, low pressure steam, oils, fuels and mild gases
