SEALEX
Reliable gasketing on a roll

100% PURE PTFE which has been expanded by a special process to form soft, highly compressible gasketing on a roll.  It has the very wide chemical resistance of PTFE and a pressure sensitive adhesive strip to ensure easy installation

• Maximum operating conditions:  Temperatures 500ºF - Pressure 2000 psi
  (Note these figures do not operate at the same time)
• Unlike conventional PTFE, which is prone to cold flow, Sealex has good creep resistance and bolt torque retention properties.
• Highly compressible.  Suitable for sealing week or damaged flanges.
• Very wide chemical range.  Inert to practically all chemicals.
• Available in roll form.  No need to maintain large stocks of gaskets.
• Not subject to aging.  PTFE is unaffected by normal environmental conditions.
• Suitable for cryogenic use.  -321ºF (-196ºC).
• Ideal for use where cleanliness is essential.  Will not support bacterial growth or contaminate product being sealed.
• Sealing surfaces part freely.  Saves surfaces part freely.  Saves expensive maintenance downtime.
• FDA Complience.
• Easy to assemble.

MORE RELIABLE - The high compressibility of Sealex joint sealant produces a very thin, wide ribbon under pressure.  This means that the smallest possible area is exposed to liquids and gasses

In this condition, the thin film of Sealex is no longer subject to significant cold flow.  You can bolt up once and not have to retorque later. And that's a new on for PTFE
