Alpha PTFE Gaskets

PTFE gaskets are one of the most suitable types of gaskets for a variety of sealing applications and are mostly based on virgin PTFE, PTFE compounds, filled PTFE or expanded PTFE. It is a fluoropolymere, which features an outstanding chemical resistivity to almost all chemicals, good thermal insulation properties, and useful mechanical and processing characteristics.

They can be mostly used in valve seats, bearings, requested to resin sliding and chemicals, elastic bands for an-lubricated compressors, O-rings where elastomers cannot withstand

• PTFE Sheets- Skived PTFE /Molded PTFE / filled PTFE / Extruded PTFE/ Expanded PTFE
• PTFE Rods- Molded PTFE / filled PTFE / Extruded PTFE
• PTFE Tube-Molded PTFE / PTFE Hose / Extruded PTFE
• PTFE Gaskets
• PTFE Joint sealent
• PTFE Envelop gaskets
• PTFE Valve stem packing

PTFE provides excellent thermal insulation and is the most chemically resistant plastic known. It is unaffected by most corrosive liquids, vapors and gases, and conforms to both FDA and AMS specifications. PTFE will insulate to 500 volts per mil and does not melt. Because of these properties, PTFE gaskets, washers and seals are used in the following industries:

• Electrical Applications
• Food, Beverage & Pharmaceutical
• Laboratories
• Petrochemical & Chemical Processing
• Semi-Conductor

An extended range of improved mechanical and processing properties can be additionally reached by a combination of virgin PTFE and different fillers.
