PTFE gaskets are sealing components made from PTFE material. They are commonly used in industries such as chemical processing, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, and food processing. PTFE gaskets have several key properties that make them suitable for various sealing applications.
One of the main advantages of Teflon gaskets is their excellent chemical resistance. They are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases, solvents, and corrosive materials. This makes them ideal for sealing applications where exposure to harsh chemicals is common.
Polytetrafluoroethylene gaskets also have a high temperature resistance. They can withstand temperatures ranging from -200°C to +260°C (-328°F to +500°F) without losing their physical properties. This makes them suitable for applications that involve extreme temperatures, such as in flange connections or heat exchangers.
