Advantages of using PTFE gasket and sheets


Uni Klinger PTFE Material manufactured india with special process that produces a uniform and highly fibrillated microstructure with a lot of fibers running in multidirectional. It is an asbestos free material and meets the FDA requirements, doesn’t have any corrosion and is able to be stored without any time limit, also suitable for oxygen application.

Chemical Resistance    :-

Chemically Inert against all substances (PH 0 - 14), including the most aggressive acids and strong caustic alkaline solution (Iyes).

The only exceptions are molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine at high temperature and Pressure.  

Temperature Resistance:-

All types of process industries like chemical industry, food industry and metallurgy, the need for temperature resistance is very high.

 PTFE is suitable for -2400C up to +2600C. for short period up to 3150C

Non-corrosive properties :-

In chemical, Food or pharmaceutical industries, you need a material that is corrosion-resistant because the processes use harsh chemicals and acids. Due to its non-wetting, non-corrosive, and non-contaminating properties, PTFE offers high-quality sealing and better protection from leakage considered ideal in these industries.

Easy availability :- 

We can provide customized PTFE material for the variety of industrial use. Easy to cut and install at any location, can seal rough or damaged flanges, Users are required to give specifications in detail to the manufacturers, and they can fabricate sheets and gaskets as per the need.

Conclusion :- 

We have seen the major benefits and superiorities of using PTFE Gasket and sheets. However, we should not overlook its one weakness as well. The material tends to show creep and cold flow characteristics under compressive pressures.
