Introduction:
Gain the benefits of PTFE gaskets without the problems of creep and cold flow. Unmatched in sealing reliability, GORTM GR sheet gasket provides high temperature and blowout resistant sealing that's superior to any other PTFE sheet gasket.
This sheet gaskets are made from 100% expanded PTFE. Because it is dimensionally stable, yet conformable, it is ideal for real world flange conditions. It conforms to rough surfaces, yet compresses into a very tough gasket that makes a tight, long lasting seal.
GORETM GR sheet gaskets are ideal for sealing steel flanges for many aggressive chemicals. Key Features - Increased resistance to creep and cold flow
- Chemically inert
- Soft and conformable
- Dimensionally stable
- High tensile strength
- Blowout / high-temperature resistance
Key Benefits - Highest sealing reliability in its class
- Seals irregular flanges
- Retains stress; minimum retorque
