(FSA-DSJ-401-09) Specification for High Temperature and Acid Resistant Terpolymer Fluoroelastomer

This technical revision of the standard provides a more comprehensive definition and updated specifications for the industry recommended elastomer compound used in the manufacture of expansion joints installed in high temperature and corrosive flue gas systems. ©2009, 7 Pages.

(FSA-DSJ-402-15) Fluoroelastomer Belt Recommendation

This standard covers composition and property recommendations for fluoroelastomer belts. Terpolymer fluoroelastomers have been used for Flue Duct expansion joints due to their outstanding resistance to chemicals, oils and heat compared to any other elastomer. Fluoroelastomers are especially effective in Flue Duct applications where condensation and sulfuric acid is a problem such as in coal […]

(FSA-DSJ-403-19) Fluoroplastic Belt Guidelines

This standard covers composition and property recommendations for a single layer fluoroplastic/fiberglass fabric belt. Fluoroplastics have been used for flue duct expansion joints because of their outstanding resistance to chemicals and heat. They are particularly effective in applications where condensation and chemical attack are problems, such as sulfuric acid bearing flue gas in coal-fired power […]

(FSA-MG-501-02-RETIRED — For Reference Only!) Standard Test Method for Inward Buckling of Spiral Wound Gaskets

This test method enables a relative comparison of the predisposition of a spiral wound gasket to inward buckling. The relative resistance to inward buckling of a spiral wound gasket thereby can be determined. This procedure may be used by supplier and user to establish an acceptance/rejection criteria for spiral wound gaskets, when desired.© 2002, 9 […]
