In Kenya, expanding infrastructure and energy networks rely on sealing materials that can withstand fluctuating pressures, temperature changes, and varying media resistances. AFM 38, one of Victor Reinz’s proven industrial gasket materials, is used in pump stations, pipeline systems, generator units, and water treatment facilities, helping to keep systems sealed, safe, and operational. In doing so, it contributes to reliable infrastructure.

 

Sealing Material Designed for Demanding Applications

AFM 38 is a gasket material made from aramid fibers and advanced elastomer binders, processed under heat and pressure. It offers excellent thermal resistance for continuous operation up to 200 °C and short-term peaks up to 300 °C. Its high compressibility (15–25%) and strong recovery (>60%) ensure reliable sealing even under low surface pressure, ideal for lightweight housings, pumps, and fittings. Combined with outstanding gas sealability, AFM 38 delivers dependable performance across a wide range of applications.

 

Proven Performance for Global Infrastructure

AFM 38 is widely used in:

• Pumps, valves, and pipeline systems
• Engine and gearbox covers
• Applications involving oils, fuels, solvents, water and antifreeze mixtures

Thanks to its chemical resistance and long-term sealing stability, AFM 38 is suitable for a wide range of applications. Its durability and low maintenance requirements make it a trusted solution for infrastructure projects worldwide, especially in regions facing challenging environmental conditions.
