Ropes
Ropes
Fil-Tec Fiberglass Rope is manufactured in 4 different densities to match your high temperature sealing needs.
This variety of densities allow you to match the rope to your sealing need.
Low Density ropes are softer and more compressible, while High Density ropes are very hard and much less compressible.
With diameters from 1/8" (3mm) to 1.5" (38mm) available in four different densities, you'll be able to find the right rope for your applications.
Add Features for additional performance:
- Available with Graphite Coating — More abrasive resistant than natural white. Black color blends with unit . . . giving a higher quality appearance. Ends gasket painting and sticking problems. Graphite coating is permanent at high temperatures.
- Available with Pressure Sensitive Adhesive applied to one side of product — Faster installation and increased productivity. Eliminates messy glues and cements.
- Available with Wire Jacket — Longer lasting and increased strength.
- Available with Wire Mesh Core — Resilient under pressure . . . springs back upon load pressure.
- Impregnated with PTFE — Low coefficient of friction. Excellent chemical resistance.
- Coated with Vermiculite — Increase temperature resistance, remains stable to 1500ºF.
Fiberglass has a service rating of up to 1000°F, 538°C. And has no environmental hazards (non-asbestos). It is flexible for easy installation around corners and is bondable to most materials. With excellent thermal endurance fiberglass has chemical resistance to most acids and dilute alkalis. Fiberglass will not absorb water or attract mold or mildew.
