Expanded PTFE Joint Sealant
Outstanding versatility
GORE-TEX® joint sealing withstands temperatures from -450° to +600° F (-268° to +315° C), seals internal pressures from full vacuum to 3,000 psig (200 bar) with a tested P x T factor of 1.8 million, and is unaffected by most chemicals (except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine). It's ideal for cryogenic applications and is FDA/USDA suitable for use in food processing and pharmaceutical industries. You can use it just about anywhere. And, it lasts indefinitely, when used within its operating parameters.
Eliminate retorquing
When properly installed, GORE-TEX® joint sealant becomes a very thin, strong gasket with the ability to withstand high compressive loads. This, together with its resistance to creep and cold flow, helps GORE-TEX® joint sealant maintain a very high level of tightness over time. In most applications, after the initial installation, you'll never have to to retorque, even at temperatures up to 600° F (315° C). PTFE Teflon Gasket
