Where is the main resource of flexible graphite

Flexible graphite is made from natural flake graphite that is mined. The primary sources are China (65%), Brazil (15%), Canada (10%) and other countries. Furthermore, 60% natural flake graphite mines in China located in our Shandong Province!

Why use Flexible Graphite

Flexible graphite is the best material available today. Inert carbon will not corrode.

Unaffected by chemicals. True chemically inert material, handles 0-14 ph spectrum.

Steam temperature range to 1800   .

Excellent compressibility and recovery (spring back).

Seals with low bolt loads.

Conforms to smooth or irregular sealing surfaces.

Absence of binder means no ageing or embrittlement.

Absence of health hazard.

Low thermal expansion characteristics.

Indefinite shelf life, natural graphite material has already undergone millions of years of aging in the earth's crust.

Why Now

Flexible graphite is now becoming the material of choice in many critical high temperature, high pressure applications.

The material is widely used in chemical processing facilities, power generation plants including nuclear facilities and increasingly in the automotive industry.
