PTFE Gaskets
Durlon® PTFE gasket material is a premium sealing solution renowned for its exceptional resistance to chemical corrosion and its wide operating temperature range. Crafted from pure polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), this gasket material is particularly suitable for applications involving aggressive chemicals that would degrade other materials. It is frequently utilized in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and petrochemicals, where non-reactivity and cleanliness are crucial. The inert nature of PTFE ensures that these gaskets do not contaminate the products they come into contact with, making them ideal for sanitary environments.
The physical properties of Durlon® PTFE gaskets include excellent flexibility, which allows them to create a tight seal even on irregular surfaces and in challenging sealing conditions. These gaskets also exhibit minimal creep and cold flow, characteristics that are vital for maintaining the integrity of a seal over extended periods and fluctuating temperatures. Moreover, Durlon's PTFE gasket material is available in various forms, including sheets, rolls, and custom-cut configurations, providing versatile options for a range of sealing needs. This adaptability, coupled with the material's robust performance, makes Durlon® PTFE gaskets a reliable choice for high-demand applications.
