PTFE Joint Sealants

A universal gasket made from 100% expanded PTFE. It is a radically different form of PTFE fluorocarbon material. Although very strong and tough, it is soft and "marshmallowy" in character, permitting it to conform easily to irregular surfaces and to compress to a thin, wide ribbon under pressure. It can be used in many applications where other materials fail quickly, either because of attack by corrosive chemicals or because of breakdown from exposure to high or low temperature. Only light flange bolt pressure is required to effect a seal, particularly useful in plastic, glass and ceramic vessels and pipe
