Flexpro
Curtiss-Wright is an Allied Distributor for the complete range of Flexitallic gaskets. Our broad assortment of gasket offerings allows us to provide the best fix your leaking application.
Though relatively new to the U.S. market, the FLEXPRO™ gasket has offered a tight, reliable seal in a wide range of applications throughout Europe since its development in Germany over 85 years ago. The FLEXPRO gasket features a concentrically serrated solid metal core with a soft, conformable sealing material bonded to each face. The soft facing material produces low stress gasket seating, while the serrated geometry of the metal core increases sealing performance by inducing stress concentrations on the sealing surfaces. The serrations minimize lateral movement of the facing material, while the metal core provides rigidity and blowout resistance. The FLEXPRO gasket exhibits excellent compressibility and recovery characteristics, maintaining joint tightness under pressure and temperature fluctuations, temperature differential across the flange face, flange rotation, bolt stress relaxation, and creep. It is suitable for applications from vacuum to extremely high pressure.

Flexitallic FLEXPRO kammprofile Gasket
FLEXPRO gaskets combat flange rotation, bolt stress relaxation, and creep, even under extreme pressure and temperature fluctuations. The Kammprofile gasket is named FLEXPRO because it offers the compressibility of a sheet gasket for low sealing stress with the bolt tightness of a spiral wound gasket—plus the handling ease of a solid metal gasket and its resistance to buckling.
FLEXPRO Graphite Gasket
The Flexpro gasket exhibits excellent compressibility and recovery characteristics, maintaining joint tightness under pressure and temperature fluctuations, temperature differential across the flange face, flange rotation, bolt stress relaxation, and creep. Suitable from vacuum to extremely high pressure applications.
Thermiculite 845 FLEXPROTM kammprofile
• High temperature facing material for kammprofile gaskets
• Cryogenics to 1800F/982C
FLEXPRO Style PN
Style PN FLEXPRO gaskets are selected for use in confined locations, including male and female, tongue and groove, and recessed flange arrangements.
FLEXPRO Style ZA
The Style ZA FLEXPRO™ is a slight variation of the Style ZG. The integral outer locating ring is replaced by a loose fitting independent ring which is preferred where flange differential radial thermal expansion may be encountered. These rings may also be spot welded.
FLEXPRO Style ZG
Variation of the PN FLEXPRO, utilizes an integral outer locating ring for correct gasket positioning within the mating flange bolt circle. Style ZG FLEXPRO™ gaskets are recommended for use on standard raised face and flat face flange assemblies.
