High-temperature round cords made from glass fiber and ceramic represent indispensable sealing materials for extreme temperature applications. These specialized sealing solutions enable reliable sealing in areas where conventional materials fail.

Temperature Resistance and Material Diversity

Ceramic cords as ceramic fabric cords handle temperature ranges from -10°C to +450°C in continuous operation and tolerate short-term loads up to +550°C. Glass fiber cords as glass fiber fabric cords significantly exceed these values and function reliably between -10°C and +1100°C. Both material types are designed to be completely asbestos-free.

Chemical Resistance and Application Areas

The round cords show exceptional resistance to greases, oils, acids, alkalis, and solvents. Steam, superheated steam, and even liquid metals cannot harm the materials. Main application areas include chimney construction, power plant technology, and petrochemical plants where extreme temperatures and aggressive media occur.

Product Range

The available range includes:

• Glass fiber fabric cord - asbestos-free
• Stainless steel cable - FEP-coated
• Ceramic fabric cord - asbestos-free
• Round cord made from PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) - unsintered

The materials are particularly suitable for applications in process engineering where precise sealing under extreme operating conditions is required. Through the combination of high-temperature resistance and chemical inertness, these round cords enable safe process control in critical industrial sectors.

Glass fiber and ceramic round cords and other products, such as elastomer round cords and foam rubber round cords, are available directly in the online shop of RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik. The range of RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik offers over 80,000 different products, which are used among others in mechanical engineering, chemical technology, process engineering as well as medical technology.
