GORE™ Universal Pipe Gasket (Style 800)
|
For sealing joints reliably
|
|
UNIVERSAL GASKET FOR ALL
STANDARD FLANGES
|
|
GORE™ Universal Pipe Gasket (Style 800) is used to seal all
types of flanges in chemical process piping. Designed to meet the
needs of many different piping materials, they are ideal for standardising
gasket materials across steel, glass-lined steel and FRP systems,
wherever a non-metallic gasket can be used.
Unaffected by even the most aggressive chemicals, Style 800 gasket
combines all the properties of expanded PTFE with exceptional sealability.
|
 |
| Engineered to deliver
superior bolt load retention, these gaskets exhibit outstanding creep
resistance for reliable sealing of piping flanges. And due to their
unique design, they provide the lowest stress-to-seal for applications
in the most fragile of plastic, steel and glass-lined flanges. |
|
