Gasket Application
Gasket application using superior-bonding adhesive is critical in the regasketing process. Selection of adhesive depends on the application and the operation conditions under which the plate heat exchanger will be in service. Media as well as temperatures and pressure are factors when adhesive is selected. If proper adhesive is not used the lifetime of the gaskets will be reduced dramatically. In fact, using improper adhesive can cause improper conformance of plate to gasket and result in rolled grooves, corrosion and can even cause plates to crack during assembly.
