Short Description:

The U Seal gasket sets new purity standards in the process industry through highly reliable sealing with a hygiene-compliant design. Numerous manufacturers of machines and systems for the food or pharmaceutical industries often use standard Usit rings for screw connections in or on the product room. However, these are not EHEDG-compliant, as germs or biofilms can form as bacterial colonies and corrosion under the screw head and thus no hygienically optimized design is guaranteed. The metallic flat gaskets with an elastomer bead of 70 EPDM 291 (black), 70 EPDM 253815 (white) and 75 fluoroprene® XP 45 (blue) enable a secure and dead space-free seal. For applications with particularly aggressive CIP/SIP cleaning and high steam sterilization temperatures as well as greasy process media.
