KLINGER THERMICA

High Temperature Flexible Compressed Fibre Introduction: . Klinger Thermica was developed to create and easy to use for higher temperature applications. Thermica has been engineered to have a very good loadbearing capacity and create a very leaktight seal which meets the most stringent industry standards. Thermica also possesses the strengths of a conventional compressed fi bre material which makes it easy to cut and fl exible. Applications: • Thermica is a compressed fi bre material developed for high temperature service • Thermica can be used as an alternative to graphite laminates for applications up to 400° C Properties: • Compressed fi bre material which is easy to cut and handle • Excellent leaktightness • Excellent thermal stability up to 400° C • Very good loadbearing capacity and stress relaxation properties Typical Specifi cations: Colour : Beige Max. temperature : 400° C Compressibility ( ASTM F36J) : 12% Recovery ( ASTM F36J) : 55% Klinger hot/ cold compression Decrease in thickness at 23° C, 50MPa 17% Decrease in thickness at 300° C, 50MPa 13% Decrease in thickness at 400° C, 50MPa 18% Stress relaxation DIN 52913: 50MPa, 16h/ 300° C 28 N/ mm² BS 7531: 40MPa, 16h/ 300° C ( 1.5mm) : 27 N/ mm² Thickness increase ( ASTM F146) , Oil IRM 903 : 5hr/ 150º C : 8% Tightness ( BS 7531) : < 1.0 ml/ min Availability: • Thickness ( mm) : 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 & 3.0 • Sheeting ( m) : 2.0 x 1.5
