PTFE Gasketing with Glass Fiber

Style KXT611 Blue

Advantages

• Highly compressible PTFE outer layers seal under low bolt load-suitable for many non-metallic flanges

• Compressible layers conform to surface irregularities, especially on warped, pitted or scratched flanges

• Rigid PTFE core reduces cold flow and creep normally associated with conventional PTFE gaskets

Excellent chemical compatibility

• Pure PTFE withstands a wide range of chemicals

Easy to cut and install

• Soft PTFE can be cut easily from larger sheets, reducing inventory costs and expensive downtime

• Rigid PTFE core facilitates installation, especially on large diameter flanges and hard-to-reach areas

Application

• Strong caustics

• Strong acids

• Hydrocarbons

• Chlorine

• Cryogenics

• Glasslined equipment

• Plastic piping

• Low bolt load applications
