Specialty oven manufacturer.
The company was working with the U.S. Navy on a combination hot-air/ steam oven for use in nuclear submarines. The entire oven was designed in modules that could pass through a 25" diameter hatch, to be assembled inside the submarine. A gasket material was needed that could withstand 500°F steam and also be approved by the National Sanitation Foundation for use in a food zone.
GORE® Joint Sealant was the only material that could meet these parameters in addition to all other performance requirements.
