Graph 1 illustrates the loss of load over time for graphite as a function of temperature.

Graph 2 illustrates several reasons why end users prefer Therniiculite 815 over mica sheet, the most influencial factor being sealability. Mica sheet is over 100 times more leaky than Thermiculite 815.

Thermiculite 815 Tanged Sheet

• Thermiculite 815 tanged sheet can be laser and waterjet cut.
• Seal large diameter gaskets at the dovetails with Thermiculite paste. The paste creates a high temperature seal as if the gasket was one piece!

Technical Information
Compare the minor weight loss of Thermiculite 815
to the best and worst forms of graphite in Graph 3
below. Thermiculite is thermally stable.

Unlike graphite, the load loss at operational temper- attires does not increase with time when using Thermiculite, as shown in Graph 4.
