Non-Metal Reinforced Laminates

All the GRAFOIL® advantages at a compressed sheet price

GrafTech's non-metallic reinforced laminates are multi-purpose gasket materials. Typical applications include valves, pumps, pipe flanges, glass-lined equipment, steam traps, heat exchangers and compressors. Metal Reinforced, All-GRAFOIL® sheet and laminate, and high performance Reinforced PTFE Gasketing products are also available

Automotive and Internal Combustion Applications

  • GHC
    Laminate made from grade GTC with a micro-thin phenolic-based adhesive layer.
Fluid Sealing & Industrial Applications
  • GHP
    Laminate with polymer insert (0.0015 in/0.038 mm thick) thermally bonded to Standard Industrial Grade GTB sheet facing. It  is non-fibrous and contains no asbestos.
  • GHW
    Laminate with excellent strength and handling characteristics. It has a high temperature glass fiber insert (0.0025 in/0.06 mm thick) thermally bonded to Standard Industrial Grade GTB sheet facing. Elevated temperature testing proves that GHW outperforms asbestos gasket materials.
  • GRAFKOTE® Laminates
    Include either a single- or double-sided thin .0005-inch thick polymer coated surface. The thin polymer coating enhances the product handleability and durability.
  • GHN
    Unbranded laminate made with GRAFOIL Grade GTE flexible graphite, thermally bonded to both faces of a plastic insert. It is not certified to any industry standards.
