EPDM m / steel reinforcement

The KLINGER® KGS/S is a rubber-steel gasket featuring a lenticular profile and an integrated molded spear tip along the gasket’s inner diameter. This spear tip, a key feature of the KLINGER® KGS/S gasket, enhances sealing security even at very low surface pressures. Acting as an embedded O-ring, the spear tip ensures a resilient seal that remains effective across varying pressure conditions. Additionally, the KLINGER® KGS/S gasket has rounded edges that minimize the risk of damage to flange surfaces during installation. 

KLINGER® KGS/S is suitable for installation between flanges of varying materials, a common requirement in industrial environments. It performs effectively between enameled steel flanges and in applications involving mixed material connections, such as metal and plastic. Its specialized design makes it highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications. 

The KLINGER® KGS/S is an extremely high-quality gasket, engineered to withstand even the most challenging conditions, and it remains globally renowned for its outstanding performance. Its unique characteristics make it ideal for demanding industries requiring both reliability and long-lasting sealing integrity. 

Application Field: 

The EPDM version of the KLINGER® KGS/S gasket demonstrates excellent chemical resistance and stability against ozone, UV exposure, and other environmental factors that can age other types of rubber more quickly. Due to its resilience and multiple certifications, including WRAS, Elastomer Guideline (new KTW), and EN681-1, this gasket is particularly suitable for potable water. It is also versatile across applications involving water, fluids, air, acids, and bases. For specific media requirements, please consult the resistance table. 

Application: 

The KLINGER® KGS/S gasket is especially suitable for applications requiring low bolt force, as well as installations where flange surfaces may be slightly damaged or non-parallel. This makes it an ideal choice in setups where flexibility and reliable sealing are essential. The KLINGER® KGS/S is available in various sizes, including up to DN600, making it adaptable for both small and large systems.
