Fittings gaskets “CAM-LOCK” type
FF.GI offers a full range of “cam-lock” type fittings gaskets. Different kinds have been developed according to the different applications required by our customers. These types of gaskets are used in the food, chemical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.
The gasket consists of a rubber insert that grants elasticity, while the cover (envelope) offers perfect protection from chemical aggression.
A full range of these gaskets is always available and ready to be shipped, to provide our customers with a fast and efficient service.

PTFE ENVELOPE WITH RUBBER INSERT
This is the most used gasket in the chemical industry. It offers the best quality to price ratio. It consists of a rubber insert (mostly EPDM, sometimes FKM) protected by a PTFE virgin standard grade FLON-CHEM 1000 envelope which complies with FDA legislation, Food and Drug Administration, department of Health and Human Services, Code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR Ch.1; USA regulations sections 177.1550 (a) (1) and (b) Perfluorocarbon Resins.This type of gasket is always available in our warehouse, ready to be shipped, from DN12 (½”) to DN100 (4”)
PTFE ENVELOPE WITH “FOOD GRADE” RUBBER INSERT
Unlike the type of gasket above, this type of gasket is specifically suited to the food industry, in which both the envelope in PTFE FLON-CHEM 1000 and the rubber inserts must be eligible for food contact; these gaskets are available from DN12 (½”) to DN150 (6”).
The insert suitable for food contact can be white EPDM, translucent or red VMQ (silicone), FLON-CHEM 1006 FKM black.

FLON-CHEM® CAM-LOCK
This gasket is unique and has been developed for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The main feature is the combination between the chemical resistance of the premium grade FLON-CHEM 1075 PTFE envelope and the high elastic return of the internal elastomer. This feature solves the sealing problems of traditional gaskets, increasing its lifespan and the possibility to be reuse it.
These are the technical alternatives to FFKM gaskets, but with sensibly lower prices. In addition, these gaskets offer a series of benefits when compared with FEP or PFA encapsulated gaskets.

INCAPSULATED FEP/PFA SILICONE
This type of gasket was created to solve the rising number of sealing problems of sealing in industries using aggressive fluids. It is made from two parts: a coating in FEP (Fluorine-Ethylene-Propylene) or PFA (PerfuoroAlcoxy) and the internal elastomer in VMQ (silicon) or FLON-CHEM 1006 FKM.
