Ceramic Fiber Aluminum Foil Cloth Gasket
Code prefix AFG
Ceramic fiber aluminum foil cloth gaskets use ceramic fiber cloth as the base material with aluminium foil laminated to the surface. They are processed into irregular shapes to suit the application and can be customised in size and specification, with the composite material changed to the customer's requirement. The gasket has weather resistance and waterproof performance, with a continuous use temperature of 600 C.

01 — Product description
Ceramic cloth with a foil face
Ceramic fiber aluminum foil cloth gaskets use ceramic fiber cloth as the base material and are manufactured by laminating aluminum foil on the surface. They are processed into irregular shapes to suit the application and can be customised in size and specification, with the composite material changed to the customer's requirement. The gasket has weather resistance and waterproof performance, with a continuous use temperature of 600 C.
| Item | Parameter |
|---|---|
| Thickness | 2 – 12 mm |
| Diameter | 5 – 3000 mm |
| Continuous use temperature | 600 C |
Working condition suitability and restrictions
Suitable for dry static insulation, sealing and protection. The foil surface does not resist continuous open flame burning, high-speed medium erosion, strong mechanical friction or strong acid or alkali corrosion, and the gasket cannot be used for long-term liquid immersion or high-pressure loading. Over-temperature and over-condition use cause foil detachment, base powdering and structural failure.
Usage precautions
- The base is ceramic fiber, so cutting and processing release dust; ventilate, wear dust protection and dispose of waste under local environmental regulations.
- Use strictly at the rated temperature; long-term over-temperature operation is prohibited.
- Inspect regularly and replace when the foil detaches, the base is damaged, or the gasket hardens and powders.
- All technical data are for reference; users should test suitability and follow relevant safety regulations.

Service limits
- The foil surface does not resist continuous open flame, high-speed media erosion, strong mechanical friction or strong acid or alkali.
- Not for long-term liquid immersion or high-pressure loading.
- Over-temperature or over-condition use causes foil detachment, base powdering and structural failure.
- Ceramic fiber cutting releases dust; ventilate, wear dust protection and replace damaged gaskets.
