Q I want to learn how to install the KAMLOK gasket. I’m trying to install a Teflon jacket gasket, but it’s tight on the side. Is it safe to push it in? Gasket
A.

Forcibly inserting it may cause streaks and deformation in the Teflon part, which may cause leakage. To install the gasket, immerse it in hot water at 80°C for 10-15 seconds (increasing flexibility) and firmly insert the gasket diagonally along the streaks (including the filler part). When purchasing a new product, gasket replacement can also be provided, so consult with the supplier.
