GORE™ Joint Sealant Success Story (California Winery)

Application

California Winery

Summary

The endgaskets on the shell and tube wine chiller used to be cut from a sheet material. When the gaskets would rupture, sometimes the chiller would freeze due to internal bypassing, causing damage to the vessel. Or an external leak would result, causing significant product loss.

Results

GORE™ Joint Sealant was found to be faster to install, and to last four-to-five times longer than previous gaskets. Savings on gasketing alone are more than $2,500 per year, and recaptured product and production time easily exceeds $20,000 per year.
