LANLE ptfe Gasket tape is produced by expanding 100 virgin PTFE into a highly fibrillated structure which is softer and more flexible than regular PTFE and thus conforms easily to irregular and rough surfaces. In addition, the expanded material is easier to compress and exhibits excellent resistance to creep and cold flow. LANLE ptfe Gasket tape is supplied as a continuous tape with a self-adhesive backing strip to facilitate easy installation.
APPLICATION / SERVICE
LANLE ptfe Gasket tape flanges with rough or irregular surfaces and requires less bolt torque than other gasket materials. It is particularly suited for sealing glass lined and plastic flanges. Made from 100% virgin PTFE, this style can be used to seal all aggressive chemicals over the entire 0 to 14 pH range, except for molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine. It will not contaminate or discolor flow media. It has no smell or taste. It is neither contaminating nor toxic .
Advantages:
Quick and simple installation, no cutting or punching necessary. The used gasket can be easily removed without leaving any deposits on the sealing areas. Excellent malleability makes the repair of minor damages and irregularities unnecessary. Extremely versatile because of exceptionally good chemical and thermal stability. There is less chance of choosing the wronggasket material, because can be used for most applications within the plant, with longer gasket life (less downtime), no material waste, and low stock cost.
