Note: The following options are available as special order for these gaskets: metal detectable elastomers, larger diameters, finer meshes, and electropolished screens. Click here to let us know your custom requirements and we will be happy to quote them for you.
Rubber Fab's EPDM Cam and Groove Sock Screen Gaskets are designed with centering knobs on all sides to make installation and removal a breeze. These fluid filtration gaskets feature a 316L stainless steel screen that is available in various lengths, making them suitable for high purity systems. The benefits of the Sock Screen versus traditional flat screen gaskets include: 300% more open area, greater flow under heavy particulate, less servicing, and reduced downtime. Use these fluid filtration gaskets for bulk transfers, tanker truck transfers, pump protection, fluid conditioning, flavor infusion, and much more. Our sock screens are available in a variety of mesh sizes ranging from 10 Mesh up to 325 Mesh, with 10 and 16 mesh being the standards.
EPDM is specified by many process equipment manufactures and are generally suitable for these applications, however service life must be considered and a preventative maintenance program must be in place to mitigate degradation. EPDM Gaskets are generally only suitable for low pressure steam between -30°F and 300°F. EPDM is a good choice for Camlock Gaskets when an economical solution for weather and chemical resistant seals is desired. Chemically, EPDM has good resistance to animal oils, vegetable oils, ozone, strong chemicals, and oxidizing chemicals. Do not use EPDM gaskets for mineral oils, solvents, or aromatic hydrocarbons.
