Expanded PTFE (ePTFE) has revolutionized the sealing industry. By modifying traditional Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) through a biaxial stretching and lamination process, ePTFE retains PTFE's legendary chemical resistance while addressing its two biggest weaknesses: high creep (cold [...]
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a fluoropolymer renowned for its exceptional chemical resistance and ultra-high purity. PTFE sheet and rod exhibit self-lubricating behavior and a very low coefficient of friction, making them ideal for high-temperature seals, insulators, [...]
Gland Packing (also called sealing packing or braided packing) is usually braided from relatively soft, flexible yarns and is installed in the stuffing box as a strip-shaped sealing element to prevent media leakage. In early [...]
Expanded PTFE gasket tape is a sealing material offered as continuous, white, 100% ePTFE tape. It is known for its excellent flexibility, compression resilience, and ease of installation, making it a popular choice in various [...]
From PTFE Chemistry to ePTFE Performance Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is renowned for its excellent chemical stability, wide service temperature range, electrical insulation properties, low friction, and anti-stick characteristics. It has one of the lowest coefficients of [...]
In petrochemical, metallurgy, and nuclear plants, bolted flange connections rely on gaskets to prevent leaks in pressure vessels and piping. Under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, the sealing performance and reliability must be exceptional. Any leakage [...]
In the production processes of the petroleum, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries, equipment such as pipelines, valves, and pressure vessels is interconnected through passages. To prevent leakage at every flange joint, a sealing gasket is typically [...]
Metal Jacketed gaskets (MJGs) and spiral wound gaskets (SWGs) are effective sealing gaskets for high-temperature, high-pressure, and chemical applications. While both are semi-metallic gaskets, they seal differently, install differently, and are used in different applications. [...]
Gland packing continues to be the sealing solution of choice in valves and pumps across various industrial sectors, due to its reliability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance. However, gland packing's performance relies heavily on precise [...]
Corrugated metal gaskets are specialized sealing solutions designed to provide reliable, leak-free performance between flange faces, pipe connections, and machinery interfaces. They feature a wave-like metal core structure that enhances resilience and spring-back capabilities, combined [...]
