AF-153® plate

AF-153® Plate

Series: GAMBIT AF Economical

A gasket plate with low technical parameters, recommended mainly for use in water supply and sewage systems.

The GAMBIT AF Economical series are gasket plates designed for use in low-temperature and low-pressure conditions, providing effective sealing. Due to their resistance to fuel oils, they are particularly recommended for installations operating in heating and fuel systems.

Technical Specification - GAMBIT AF-153 Gasket Plate®

Material and Composition

The GAMBIT AF-153® gasket plate is made of natural fibers, mineral fibers, and fillers, which are bonded with a binder based on a mixture of NBR, NR, and SBR rubbers.
