Easy to Cut
Easy to Install
After mating the matching dovetail sections together,
wrap a length of either Garlock Smooth Finished or
Garlock Diamond Textured Graphite tape (0.010" thick)
around dovetail area. Width of graphite tape must be
at least 1/2" greater than dovetail area. Wrap tape one
full revolution around gasket in dovetail area. Be sure

Installation
to overlap tape by approximately 1/2" and cut tape. DO
NOT attempt to open or move tape at this point - it will
damage the tape. With a smooth piece of metal that is
greater in area than the dovetail area, softly tap with a
hammer and blend the tape into the gasket. Place flang-
es together and follow normal installation procedures.
