Cranflex – Oil Paper Jointing
Because of its ability to seal against petrol, oil and water at low cost, Cranflex is used extensively throughout the world in many automotive applications.
Cranflex has limited uses in the industrial and marine markets because of its relatively low heat and chemical resistance compared with non-asbestos materials.
