Expanded PTFE Joint Sealant

Expanded PTFE joint sealant is a new soft tape gasket product made of 100% PTFE, developed using a highly specific treatment on the PTFE Fluorocarbon material. It excels in sealing flange connections, especially those with surface irregularities commonly found in glass-lined or plastic-lined equipment.

The Sealant tape is a form-in-place gasket with its exceptional performance characteristics, pure material composition, and versatility, serving as an ideal sealing solution across various industries. Its adaptability and ease of use contribute to its pivotal role in diverse applications, making it a reliable choice for sealing requirements in different industrial settings. And the ePTFE Joint Sealant comes with a backing adhesive on one side, it allows custom on-site cutting and shaping without the need for pre-cutting or prefabrication.
