Our packings utilise the most advanced production technique and materials to ensure high integrity even in the most demanding of industrial applications.
Material constructions include PTFE, Graphite and carbon fibre and synthetic fibres in a variety of combinations. For high performance valve applications, we manufacture exfoliated graphite die formed rings in virtually any size, section or density to suit requirements.
Straub Pipe Couplings
Available exclusively through Flexitallic Australia, the STRAUB Pipe Repairing System offers an extensive range of pipe damage control above and below ground including systems under pressure.
STRAUB’s light-weight wrap-around pipe repair clamps are available in narrow (32.0mm) and wide (700.0mm) casing widths to contain pin-holes, cracks, corrosion blisters, and large hole damage.
Flange Guard Safety Shields
Pipe safety shields also known as flange guards are used in a variety of industries, where their primary application is the prevention of harmful spray-outs and mist formation from failing pipe joints, of toxic, corrosive and dangerous liquids such as acid, oil or steam.
Safety or spray shields offer the last line of defence. They are not designed to contain the leak indefinitely, but to prevent the harmful spray outs resulting in fire or explosions causing considerable plant down time, capital expenditure and even loss of life.
Finger Savers
Flexitallic Australia are authorised distributors for the FingerSaver throughout Australia.
Every day in many industries, people are sustaining hand and finger injuries that are preventable. Using the correct safety device should be an essential part of everyday life. If you are working in areas where objects could hit you on the head, you would wear a hard hat. If your eyes are at risk from foreign objects or wind blown particles, you would wear safety glasses.
Think about your hands in the same way! Be sure to keep them safe and out of harms way, be sure to use the Fingersaver; don’t take risks with your hands.
Joint Integrity Services
Our team of application engineers understand that the use of high quality seals/gaskets are not a guarantee of sealing success. As a result, Flexitallic application engineering offer a range of Joint Integrity and Technical Services that are designed to complement and enhance Flexitallic’s product offering.
Allowing customers to operate their plants, complete projects and start up from turnarounds safely and efficiently. Our goal is to help customers achieve leak free start-up and operation within the scheduled maintenance cycle.
