Contact SupplierBIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® is a single-component sealant with the consistency of paste which is reddish- brown in colour and retains permanent elasticity.
Â
Temperature resistanceBIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® is resistant to superheated steam, air, water, coolants, oils, lubricants and chemical gases at temperatures of up to 900 °C.
Â
Pressure resistanceA 100% seal at pressures of up to 250 bar is guaranteed on sealing surfaces and joints. A pressure resistance of up to 450 bar is guaranteed for flanges without sealing rings and up to 550 bar for threaded connections. The pressure resistance implies process-related vibrations.
Â
Potential usesBIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® is primarily used in steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, generators, expanders, pumps, valves, gear units and marine engines.
Â
Application areasBIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® is suitable for use on sealing surfaces of all sizes. Any machined or prepared surfaces with damage to sealing surfaces of ≤ 0.2 mm can be treated with BIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt®.
Where products are required to fill isolated cavities of ≥ 0.2 mm to 1.0 mm we can recommend FILLING basic®, FILLING 1000® and FILLING 2000® for use.
Â
Application instructionsThe tin should be brought to room temperature before use to make the product easier to apply and spread. Alternatively, a tenth part of boiled linseed oil from our range can be added.
A layer of BIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® is applied with a brush or spatula on both sides of the dry sealing surfaces to a thickness of 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm. The joint can be subjected to load immediately. BIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® is sufficiently flexible to allow subsequent alignment work to be carried out on the connection. It has an unlimited assembly time.
Â
Service lifeWhen the product is used as intended and as instructed, we can guarantee a service life of 10 years.
Â
Shelf lifeThe product is supplied in 1 kg tin cans. When stored correctly, BIRKOSIT Dichtungskitt® will keep in the unopened tin for 5 years.
After opening, we guarantee a shelf life of 3 years if the tin is closed properly
