Quality seals for all applications

We stock a wide range of standard encapsulated camlock gaskets for the universal sealing of cam and groove hose couplings.

Highly resistant seals

The rectangular cross-section inner core of silicone or Viton® is protected by an encapsulation of FEP, with it providing extreme chemical and high temperature resistance.

Features & Benefits of Camlock­ Gaskets

  • Universal hose coupling seal

    No need to specify different elastomer materials for different applications

  • FEP Encapsulation

    Leak-free performance: Low compression set and elastomer core energiser avoids cold flow leakage

  • Silicone or Viton® inner core

    Easy installation and maintenance due to the non-stick surface with low coefficient of frictio

  • Extreme chemical resistance

    Sanitary, Sterilisable and FDA/EC specification compliant encapsulation 

  • Wide temperature range

    Superior seal for bulk liquid transfer couplings in manufacturing, distribution or storage

  • Non-contaminating

    Elimination of coupling leakage from chemical attack or creep issues, unlike traditional solid PTFE gaskets

Please note: Minimum order value is £150 and delivery will be approximately 5-10 working days, depending on the complexity and quantity of the gaskets.

What are Camlock Encapsulated Gasket Seals?

Camlock Encapsulated Gasket Seals are specialized gaskets designed to provide a secure and leak-proof seal in Camlock couplings. These gaskets are encapsulated with a chemical-resistant material, typically PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), which enhances their durability and performance in various industrial applications. They are used to prevent leakage in systems that involve the transfer of fluids, gases, or chemicals.

How do Camlock Encapsulated Gasket seals work?

Camlock Encapsulated Gasket Seals work by fitting snugly into the groove of Camlock couplings. When the Camlock arms are engaged, the gasket is compressed between the coupling faces, creating a tight and secure seal. The encapsulated material provides a barrier that resists chemical attack, high temperatures, and mechanical wear, ensuring a reliable seal under various operating conditions.

What are the benefits of Camlock Encapsulated Gasket seals?

  • Chemical Resistance: The encapsulated material, often PTFE, provides excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, making these gaskets suitable for aggressive environments.
  • High Durability: The encapsulation enhances the gasket’s durability, allowing it to withstand high pressures and temperatures.
  • Leak Prevention: These gaskets provide a secure seal that prevents leaks, ensuring the integrity of the fluid or gas transfer system.
  • Ease of Installation: Designed to fit standard Camlock couplings, these gaskets are easy to install and replace, reducing maintenance time and costs.
  • Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications, including chemical processing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and more.

What are the different types of Camlock Encapsulated Gasket seals?

  • PTFE Encapsulated Gaskets: Known for their excellent chemical resistance and high-temperature tolerance, these are widely used in corrosive environments.
  • Silicone Encapsulated Gaskets: These gaskets offer good chemical resistance and flexibility, making them suitable for applications requiring a softer seal.
  • Viton Encapsulated Gaskets: Viton provides superior chemical resistance, particularly against oils and fuels, and is suitable for high-temperature applications.
  • EPDM Encapsulated Gaskets: EPDM is resistant to water, steam, and some chemicals, making these gaskets ideal for water and steam systems.

How to choose the right Camlock Encapsulated Gasket seal?

  1. Chemical Compatibility: Ensure the encapsulated material is compatible with the fluids or gases being transferred to prevent degradation and ensure a long-lasting seal.
  2. Temperature Range: Select a gasket material that can withstand the operating temperature range of your application.
  3. Pressure Conditions: Consider the pressure levels the gasket will need to handle and choose a material that can maintain a seal under these conditions.
  4. Application Requirements: Assess the specific requirements of your application, such as flexibility, durability, and regulatory compliance, to choose the most suitable gasket type.
  5. Size and Fit: Ensure the gasket fits the Camlock coupling dimensions correctly to provide an effective seal.
