Mylar Sleeve
Mylar is the most recognised and industry approved sleeve material. Industrial Gaskets recommends Mylar Sleeve as it is stronger than Phenolic and less prone to cracking during the installation process. It is available in both Metric and Imperial sizes. The standard length is 900mm or 3Ft and can be supplied in full lengths or cut to suit your bolt length.
Phenolic Sleeve
Phenolic has been a cheaper alternative to Mylar in years of the past. However, it is prone to cracking or splitting during the installation process as the material can be brittle, especially under high bolt torque. It is available in both Metric and Imperial sizes. The standard length is 900mm and can be supplied in full lengths or cut to suit your bolt length.
