Silica Tadpole Gasket Seal: Extreme High Temperature, Heat & Flame Resistant


1900°F / 1037°C Continuous Exposure: Higher Intermittent

InSilMax Silica Tadpole tapes are fabricated with high Silica fabric that will not burn and will withstand continuous exposure to temperatures of 1900°F / 1037°C.

The tail of the tadpole is usually fastened by using metal fasteners, or by using a grab strip to hold the tail in place by compression.  Tadpoles are often used on boilers, ovens, and furnaces where they provide a seal by the door or access panel resting on the bulb.  Also used on butterfly valves to provide sealing.

This material resists most acids and alkalis and is unaffected by most bleaches and solvents.  It is highly flexible and conformable.

The bulb material can be Silica Rope, Stainless Steel Mesh or Inconel Mesh.  The metal mesh bulb have better puchback and less compression set than the rope bulb.
