CM6928 Sapphire Gasket

Sapphire Gasket Description

Sapphire Gasket is a sealing component constructed from synthetic sapphire (Al₂O₃). It is designed for use under severe conditions where a dependable seal is required. The component has a Mohs hardness of 9 and is rated for service at temperatures up to 2 040°C. It has been tested to resist wear and chemical exposure, including acids and alkalis, thereby satisfying the operational requirements of precision applications.

These gaskets are used in sectors such as aerospace, defence, and semiconductor manufacturing. The high melting point of sapphire (2 040°C) ensures that the gasket retains its functional integrity under high thermal loads. Its resistance to acids, alkalis and other corrosive substances has been quantified in laboratory tests, which supports its use in environments where performance is measured rigorously.
