GORE-TEX Joint Sealant

GORE-TEX® Joint Sealant

This original form-in-place gasketing material can be used practically everywhere. It is easy to install, even on vertical surfaces, and is ideal for large, complex or damaged flanges. Since there is no waste, this joint sealant usually costs less, on a per-gasket basis, than any other gasketing alternative. This material is fabricated from expanded PTFE, with a highly fibrillated structure that, upon compression, forms a solid homogeneous mass that is impervious to gases and liquids.

  • Outstanding versatility
  • Eliminates retorquing
  • Self-adhesive backing simplifies installation and replacement
  • No precutting
  • Low stress to seal
  • Inert to most chemicals
  • Resistant to creep and cold flow

Technical Data
Material: 100% expanded PTFE
Temperature Range: -450°F to 600°F (-268°C to 315°C)
Operating Pressure: Vacuum to 3,000 psig (200 bar)
Chemical Resistance: Resistant to all common chemicals in 0-14 ph range, except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine.

GORE-TEX® Series 300/600 Gasket Tape

Series 300 gasket tape helps to achieve greater sealing efficiencies with large steel piping and equipment. Unlike sheet gasketing, it can be quickly formed in place, installs easily and reduces expensive material scrap. Conformable and highly compressible, this tape forms a very tight seal. Strong multi-directionally expanded PTFE fibers give excellent creep resistance for a long lasting seal that withstands virtually any chemical process. It is an ideal choice when sealing large diameter flanges.

Series 600 gasket tape is intended for glass-lined equipment and guards against premature gasket failure. Unlike PTFE envelope gaskets, it will not degrade due to chemical attack and will ensure a tight and long-lasting seal. The entire gasket is chemically inert, so the user will not experience the sealing problems associated with aggressive media or outside environment. It conforms to the imperfections common in glass-lined flange surfaces, while maintaining dimensional stability for superior sealing reliability.

  • Made from 100% multidirectionally expanded PTFE
  • Chemically inert and temperature resistant
  • Dimensionally stable and creep resistant
  • 1/16” & 1/8" thicknesses (Series 300) replace sheet gasketing
  • Installs quickly around shafts
  • Reduces gasket inventory and total sealing costs

Technical Data
Material: 100% expanded PTFE, with multi-directional strength
Temperature Range: -450°F to 600°F (-268°C to 315°C)
Chemical Resistance: Chemical resistance to all media pH 0-14, except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine.
Operating Pressure: Vacuum to 1000 psig (68 bar)
Safety: Complies to FDA 21 CFR 177.1550 (PTFE) requirements for food

GORE-TEX TriGuard Gasketing

GORE-TEX® TriGuard™ Gasketing

TriGuard™ gaskets are used to seal fragile pipe flanges with low bolt load. Unlike other gaskets, they seal tight and stay tight, even with varying flange conditions. Designed for low stress-to-seal flanges, these gaskets are unaffected by most aggressive chemicals and are ideal for contamination services and highly permeable fluids, including chlorine and monomer service.

  • Chemically inert and temperature resistant
  • Conforms to flange deviations
  • High dimensional stability and creep resistance
  • Resistant to blowout
  • Seals highly permeable and aggressive fluids
  • Protects weak and fragile flanges from cracking
  • Seals damaged or misaligned flanges
  • Seldom needs retorquing

Technical Data
Material: 100% expanded PTFE, with multi-directional strength
Temperature Range: -450°F to 600°F (-268°C to 315°C)
Chemical Resistance: Resistant to all common chemicals in 0-14 ph range, except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine, particularly at elevated temperatures and pressures.
Operating Pressure: Vacuum to 1000 psig (68 bar) (HOBT2600°F (315°C))
Stability: Not subject to aging, can be stored indefinitely.
Safety: Complies to FDA 21 CFR 177.1550 (PTFE) requirements for food.
