GORE® TRIGUARD® Gaskets


TriGuard Gasket Tape

GORE® TRIGUARD® Gaskets are used to seal fragile pipe flanges with low bolt load. Unlike other gaskets, TRIGUARD® Gaskets seal tight and stay tight, even with varying flange conditions. Designed for low-stress-to-seal flanges, GORE® TRIGUARD® Gaskets are unaffected by most aggressive chemicals and are ideal for highly permeable fluids, including chlorine and monomer service.



Key Features

  • Low stress-to-seal
  • Chemically inert and temperature resistant
  • Conforms to flange deviations
  • High dimensional stability and creep resistance
  • Resistant to blowout

Key Benefits

  • Seals highly permeable and aggressive fluids
  • Protects weak and fragile flanges from cracking
  • Seals damaged or misaligned flanges
  • Reliable sealing performance
  • Seldom needs retorquing
