Novus asbestos-free gaskets have excellent resistance to oils, gases, and chemicals. Whether in the chemical, petroleum, or natural gas industries, Novus gaskets can withstand exposure to various chemical agents, ensuring long-term reliable performance.

4. Non-Stick Properties:

The materials used in Novus gaskets feature non-stick properties, which prevent the gasket from adhering to the surface it seals. This reduces maintenance needs and helps prevent contamination of the sealing surface.

5. High Flexibility:

Novus gaskets are highly flexible and adaptable, making them suitable for sealing irregular surfaces. Their high flexibility allows them to conform to micro-defects between surfaces, ensuring a perfect seal.

6. Multiple Material Options:

Novus asbestos-free gaskets come in a variety of material grades, including Novus 10, Novus 30, Novus 45, Novus 20, Novus 34, and Novus 49, offering solutions for different industrial applications.

7. Environmentally Safe:

Unlike traditional asbestos gaskets, Novus gaskets are 100% safe for human contact, making them an environmentally friendly choice. They are particularly suitable for industries like food and pharmaceuticals where safety and environmental considerations are paramount.

8. Low Friction Performance:

Novus gaskets feature low friction coefficients, which not only enhance their durability but also reduce wear during operation, extending the life of the gasket.

9. Flexible Size and Customization:

Novus gaskets are available in various sizes, shapes, and thicknesses, with the option for custom fabrication. Whether you need large-scale production or small-batch custom gaskets, Novus can meet your needs.
