Materials
– for all types of seals
Do you need a customised solution? For example, do you need gaskets with a very large diameters for wind turbines or special seals for motors that are exposed to extreme temperatures?
At Carsten Holm A/S we stock a comprehensive range of materials that are ready for production. The range includes everything from standard materials to materials with very specific properties. Moreover, we have the expertise needed to advise you of the benefits of each of these materials and we can develop a solution that is perfect for the application in question. You need to be sure that it fits the bill!
Before they came to us, many of our customers found it difficult to find a supplier who could deliver large-diameter gaskets and seals as standard stock items. At Carsten Holm A/S we always have a stock of materials to make seals at diameters up to 850 mm. Furthermore, we can rapidly produce to order customer-specific solutions at diameters of up to 1,850 mm.
