Construction and Documented Properties

SF 4300 is a compressed sheet gasket material composed of organic and glass fibres bonded with elastomer. DNV type approval certificate TAP000010D documents its construction and testing without specifying the chemical formulation of the binder. DNV lists a compressibility of 9%, a recovery of 52%, a density of 1.86 g/cm³, and thicknesses ranging from 0.75 to 6.0 mm. Issued on May 30, 2022, the certificate is stated as valid until May 29, 2027, subject to compliance with its defined scope.

Applications and Exclusions

Within the scope approved by DNV, the product is certified for use in shipboard piping systems and equipment handling media including water, oil, fuel, and non-flammable gases. The certificate explicitly excludes steam lines, LNG lines, flammable gases, and specific cargo systems.

Material Selection and Replacement Evaluation

While DNV approval is an essential asset in marine applications, it does not guarantee suitability for all lines or the compliance of adjacent materials. Verify the specific piping system requirements and the vessel's mandatory certifications. The exact media, sheet thickness, flange design, and bolt load must be confirmed for the actual operating conditions.
