BIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt ® is a single-component, paste for industrial use wherever conditions of temperature combined withpressure on smooth, plane sealing surfaces (butt joints) make extreme demands onthe quality of the sealing compound. This applies, in particular, to the sealing of metallic joints in:steam and gas turbines, compressors,generators, expanders, pumps, flange joints, etc.Five good reasons why you need to chose Birkosit for your sealing needs:1. Temperature resistance BIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt ® withstands hot steam and air, hot and cold water, light fuel oilsand lubricants, as well as crude oil and natural gas at temperatures of up to 900 °C. 2. Pressure ResistanceThe adhesion on sealing surfaces and butt joints is so high that a one hundredpercent seal is guaranteed even for pressures up to 250 bar.The pressure resistance for flanges without sealing rings is guaranteed up to 450 bar, andeven up to 550 bar for screw joints.3.Service lifeWhen used in accordance with instructions and with regular servicing asrequired for steam and gas turbines, we guarantee a service life of 10 years for use onmachined sealing surfaces (butt joints) with a finishing accuracy of Ra = 0.8 μm to 1.2 μ m. For high-pressure turbines (H), medium-pressure turbines (M) and low-pressure turbines(L) we guarantee that the product will withstand hot steam and hot air, hot and cold water,light fuel oils and lubricants as well as crude oil and natural gas up to 900°C and withstandpressure up to 250 bar.4. Storage LifeIf stored correctly, we guarantee a service life of the product in the tin of 5 years.Opened tins - If the tins are resealed correctly after partial use, we guarantee a service lifeof the product of 3 years.5. SpreadabilityBirkosit can be easily applied on the flange surface with a putty blade and as it contains linseed oil instead of solvents, it spreads easily on the flange surfaces.Specialties: Turbine Sealing, Compressor Sealing, OE Approvals, Highest Temperature Resistance, Highest Pressure Resistance, Easy Spreadability, Better Gap Filling properties
