Expanded PTFE Gasket
Expanded PTFE Gasket sheet is made of 100% P.T.F.E. by a special process that produces a uniform and highly fibrous mulitdirectional microstructure. These create a soft and pliable sealing material, yet a very reliable gasket that has excellent compressive resistance, negligible creep and cold flow. It can seal uneven and damaged flange surfaces.
PTFE gasketing sheet possesses all the universal resistance parameters of pure PTFE. Completely asbestos free meeting the FDA requirements.
