As pressure equipment in oil & gas, chemicals, nuclear, and power generation pushes into higher temperature, pressure, and vacuum regimes, sealing reliability becomes mission-critical. Expanded PTFE (ePTFE) gaskets answer this need by combining PTFE’s near-universal [...]

Alloy is a type of metal material. An alloy is a metal that is made by combining two or more metallic elements, or by adding other non-metallic elements to a metal base through techniques such [...]

Corrugated gaskets are a great alternative to spiral wound gaskets. Spiral wound gaskets are seals made by rolling the gasket material into a ring and placing it between flanges. Among the industries that use spiral wound gaskets in India are food processing, power, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and shipbuilding. So, [...]

Static seals are used in hydraulic applications where two mating surfaces or edges need to be actively sealed. By definition, a static seal is a seal that remains stationary and is not affected by movement [...]

PTFE has the advantages of heat resistance, insulation, chemical resistance, and friction resistance. It also has the disadvantages of insufficient wear resistance and creep properties. These shortcomings can cause damage to shaft bearings and load-bearing [...]

PTFE: Structure and Key Properties Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a fluorinated polymer whose main chain contains fluorine atoms. In the PTFE molecule, F atoms shield the C–C bonds and the C–F bond has very high bond [...]

Elastomers are used to make various sealants. Although there are different types of gaskets, rubber gaskets have specific characteristics and are designed for specific industrial applications. In this blog, we will introduce the various characteristics [...]

There are various forms and materials of gaskets on the market today. Kammprofile gaskets are composite gaskets widely used in industries where pressure and temperature are critical. Let's take a look at the industrial uses [...]

For industrial operations, there are many components that play an important role. Teflon gaskets are one of the most widely used components in the industry. Polytetrafluoroethylene or polytetrafluoroethylene, commonly known as TEFLON, is used as [...]

PTFE stands for polytetrafluoroethylene. Nonstick material also goes by the name Teflon. It is made of low-friction materials and can resist huge temperature changes. PTFE has the characteristics of high density and strong flexibility. It is non-toxic because it is chemically non-reactive [...]
