What Are The Uses Of Teflon Gasket?

Teflon gasket is a excellent performance polymer with very high versatile properties that make it very useful material in different types of industrial applications. The gaskets manufactured by Uni Klinger Limited find wide use in various industries. PTF has good chemical inertness, high resistance to weather, excellent electrical insulation. PTFE are also non-adhesive and have very low friction coefficient.

Reason for PTFE preference for Industrial Application:

PTFE is a fluoroelastomer, a synthetic compound that has low friction and provides high corrosion resistance. They key features of PTFE are: – • High melting point temperature • High surface wear • High resilience • Strong anti-adhesion properties • Flexibility All the above features make gasket suitable in below mentioned application: – • Electrical Applications • Food, Beverage & Pharmaceutical • Laboratories • Petrochemical & Chemical Processing • Semi-Conductor& many more

Teflon gasket using Industries are: –

  Petrochemical Industry Teflon gaskets are used in chemical handling equipment’s because of their high resistant to corrosive fluids & chemical. PTFE have high resistance to almost many chemical at different temperature & pressure except for certain alkali metals and fluorine compounds. • Pharma industry PTFE is majorly used in pharma & medical equipment industry. During manufacturing of drugs, the process involves high surface wear and tear & PTFE can be withstand it. Properties like high temperature and chemical resistance of PTFE ensures that industry gets secure sealants. Teflon gaskets help in preventing contamination of medicine during manufacturing process. • Electrical industry Gaskets of PTFE are also used as sealing gaskets in making electrical motors in components, transformer & various electrical appliances which are exposed to high heat and high wear. It is also used in electronic instruments for making secure seals that enhance product life. • Food processing industry PTFE gaskets are manufactured conforming to FDA and AMS standards. PTFE is the commonly used versatile, high-performance fluoropolymer made up long chain of carbon and fluorine atoms, which won’t allow it to bond with other items making it best material for food processing plants.
