Market Overview:
The global flexible graphite gasket market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for automotive gasketing, general industrial packing, corrosion resistant seals, and others applications. Additionally, the growing demand for lightweight and durable materials is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global flexible graphite gasket market can be segmented into plain graphite type and stainless steel flexible graphite type. The plain graphite type segment is expected to dominate the global flexible graphite gasket market during the forecast period owing to its low cost and high performance characteristics. .
Product Definition:
A flexible graphite gasket is a type of gasket that is made from a material that can be bent or flexed without breaking. This makes it ideal for use in applications where the surface between the two components being sealed is not perfectly flat. Flexible graphite gaskets are often used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications, as they can withstand heat and pressure better than other types of gaskets.
Plain Graphite Type:
Plain graphite type is a high-pressure material made up of carbon and hydrogen. It has the ability to change from solid to liquid at room temperature under normal atmospheric conditions. The plain graphite type is used in the manufacturing of gaskets for various applications including steam turbine, gas turbine, centrifugal pump impellers, automotive engines and compressors among others.
The global flexible graphite gasket market size was valued at USD 2.5 billion in 2016.
Stainless Steel Flexible Graphite Type:
Stainless steel flexible graphite type is a special material that combines the properties of both stainless steel and graphite. It has excellent corrosion resistance, thermal stability, high strength and is also easy to install. The major advantage of using this product is that it helps in reducing the overall weight of the system which further helps in improving fuel efficiency as well as power output.
Application Insights:
Automotive gasketing application segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The automotive industry has been witnessing significant growth due to rising sales of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles (LCVs). This growth has led to increased demand for flexible graphite gaskets that are used in sealing applications across various vehicle components, including engine, transmission box, body side panel joints and panels along with heat & noise insulation between engine compartment walls.
The general industrial packing segment was valued at USD 22.0 million in 2017 owing to its increasing use as an effective material when it comes time for processing large size orders or those requiring a high level of accuracy during packaging operations such as assembly or component placement on an assembly line or machine part handling/insertion into another component/another part handling fixture on another production line among others.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is home to several emerging economies, including China, India, Indonesia and Vietnam. Growing automotive production in these countries coupled with growing construction industry has led to an increased demand for graphite gaskets from Asia Pacific region.
The growth of industries such as oil & gas, power generation and petrochemicals in Middle East & Africa (MEA) is anticipated to fuel product demand over the forecast period. MEA flexible graphite gasket market was valued at USD X million in 2017 owing to high consumption levels from various application sectors across numerous industries such as aerospace manufacturing, automotive component manufacturing and others.
North America accounted for a significant share of global revenue due to increasing use of flexible graphite gaskets within various applications across major industries including aerospace & defense (AD), industrial machinery etc., which can be attributed largely towards rising energy prices within U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for flexible graphite gasket in the automotive and aerospace industries due to its excellent thermal and electrical insulation properties.
- Growing popularity of graphene-based flexible graphite gaskets as they offer high heat resistance, superior mechanical strength, and good electrical conductivity.
- Rising demand for lightweight and durable components in various end-use industries, which is fueling the growth of the global flexible graphite gasket market.
- Technological advancements that have led to the development of innovative products such as self-adhesive flexible graphite gaskets are expected to boost market growth in the coming years.
- Stringent environmental regulations across regions are compelling manufacturers to adopt eco-friendly materials such as flexible graphite gaskets, thereby propelling market growth over the forecast period
