Designed for use where the prevention of water ingress is as equally important as the prevention of spillage, Style 3020 can be used with tank hatches on ships, barges, road and rail transport. 3020 is resistant to acids, alkalis, oils, solvents, chemicals and edible products which makes it suitable for most known cargoes. Manufactured for Accord by a world leader in Marine Packings and Gaskets. The unique construction and properties of Style 3020 has made it the outstanding tank lid packing wherever chemical and solvent cargoes are carried.

It was developed in response to a growing demand for a universal tank lid packing, as a result of the dramatic increase in carrying of hazardous bulk liquid cargoes. Contains no asbestos. Provides an efficient seal that is resistant to all chemicals likely to be carried. Retains its resilience over many years. Meets all international regulations. Capable of “on-site” welding into a customized endless ring.

Unique construction. The center of 3020 Chemares is a core of special rubber for maximum chemical resistance. Around it is a protective layer of PTFE tape which is then surrounded by a thick cushion of defibrillated polypropylene that has corners constructed from the same materials braided into cords. Over the packing is a double layer of heavy duty PTFE tape with a final outer protection of braided PTFE yarn.

Style 3020 is very flexible and will deform or expand to fill slight irregularities in tank or lid grooves. It is available in square or rectangular section as required and can be supplied in long length coils; ready cut to length; or in customized readymade rings to match your tank lid specifications.
