Product Description
PYROSEAL - GDS (Wire Reinforced Glass Fibre Seals) are manufactured from mechanically bulked ‘E’ glass fibre, which is knitted into a glass rope and then over sheathed with fine stainless steel wire.
The glass fibre is resilient, incombustible and possesses a high degree of mechanical strength. It is suitable for use in temperatures up to 600°C depending upon the particular application.
GDS is resistant to oils, most chemicals and solvents and is unaffected by bacterial growth.
The stainless steel wire over sheath ensures that the seal holds it profile and provides improved resilience and abrasion resistance. It is particularly suited for application on heavy doors or lids where there is a need to avoid excessive flattening of the seal after many opening and closing operations.
Diameters: 8mm dia – 20mm dia
GDS can be made up into ‘O’ rings (with a sleeved joint) according to individual customer requirements, or supplied on 25M reels.
Typical applications include:
- Rangestyle cooker lids
- larger wood / multi-fuel stove doors
- Industrial kiln / biomass doors
