Easy to install and remove
GORE™ Gasket Tape will fit perfectly on sealing surfaces where compressed thickness or width is critical. It is ideal for any application that 1) has complicated or narrow sealing surfaces, 2) needs edge-to-edge coverage, or 3) requires full-face gasketing. The tape’s self-adhesive backing makes it quick and easy to apply, even on surfaces that are irregular or slightly oily or wet. Simply remove the backing, apply to the flange, cut to length, and cross over the ends; there is virtually no scrap. For full-face gasketing, the bolt holes can be punched out after application with a hole punch or a sharp object. For removal, the tape usually peels off the flange cleanly with no scraping required.
