Flat gasket tape, flat gasket film, gasket sheets, round cords and thread seal tape: static PTFE seals for chemical, pharmaceutical, food and plant engineering.
Send enquiryKey properties
Nexano's expanded PTFE gaskets are made from 100% pure, virgin material. They seal surfaces that are not perfectly flat and stay dimensionally stable for years.
- Temperature−240 °C to +270 °C, short-term up to +315 °C
- MediapH 0 to 14, except molten or dissolved alkali metals and elemental fluorine at high temperature and pressure
- Pressurevacuum up to 200 bar (film) or 300 bar (sheets), depending on installation and operating conditions
- Approvalsphysiologically harmless, FDA 21 CFR §177.1550
- Ageingweather- and UV-resistant, does not age, low creep
PTFE flat gasket tape
The one-side self-adhesive tape is laid as a ring on the flange. It compensates for unevenness and stays in place during assembly. Available from stock in 11 standard sizes from 3 × 1.5 mm to 50 × 3 mm.
PTFE flat gasket film
The expanded PTFE film (density 0.75 g/cm³ ± 0.1) is self-adhesive on one side and seals steel flanges, expansion joints, hand and manholes, pump housings and air-conditioning systems. Supplied on 10 m rolls.
| Width | Thicknesses |
|---|---|
| 25 mm | 0.5 / 1.0 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm |
| 50 mm | 0.5 / 1.0 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm |
| 100 mm | 0.5 / 1.0 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm |
| 150 mm | 1.0 / 1.5 mm |
| 200 mm | 1.5 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm |
PTFE gasket sheets
Multidirectionally expanded PTFE with a density of 0.85 g/cm³ ± 0.1 and high tensile strength. We cut or punch gaskets from the sheets, including complex contours and full-face gaskets. Typical uses are flanges of all kinds, apparatus construction and heat exchangers.
| Format | Thicknesses |
|---|---|
| 1,500 × 1,500 mm | 0.5 / 1.0 / 1.5 / 2.0 / 3.0 / 5.0 / 6.0 mm |
| 1,000 × 1,000 mm | 0.5 / 1.0 / 1.5 / 2.0 / 3.0 mm |
PTFE round cords
Two types are available. The extruded, unsintered sealing cord is silicone-free, contains a food-approved lubricant and seals statically in general use. The braided valve cord of 100% pure PTFE is spirally braided and wound, which keeps creep low and lets valve spindles move smoothly even under heavy compression.
- Temperature−100 °C to +250 °C
- Diametersextruded approx. 0.75 to 15 mm, braided approx. 2 to 22 mm
- Usestatic, heating and chemical plants, food contact to FDA
PTFE thread seal tape
The tape seals threaded connections in gas, water and process lines. Versions are available to DIN EN 751-3 and with DVGW, BAM (oxygen) and FDA approval. Standard is 12 mm wide, 12 m long and 0.10 mm thick; special widths from about 6 to 51 mm and other lengths and thicknesses are available on request.
