Valves and piping. Sealex joint sealant can be used wherever reliable gasketing is required. Sealex® joint sealant, specially processed, 100% pure PTFE on a roll, provides soft, highly compressible gasketing for longer life and trouble-free sealing. Its form-in-place versatility also cuts maintenance and storage costs. The high compressibility of Sealex® enables it to effectively fill flange imperfections for a tight, leak-free seal. Under pressure, it provides a very wide, thin ribbon-like joint sealant. Unlike conventional PTFE which is prone to cold flow, Sealex® has good creep resistance and bolt torque retention properties Sealex joint sealant does not support bacterial growth or cause product contamination and is FDA compliant. It has virtually no shelf-life concerns since PTFE is unaffected by normal environmental conditions. Sealex has excellent resistance properties to chemical attack. It works for most chemical services at temperatures to 500°F (260°C) and pressure to 2,000 psi (138 bar). The sealant is available in roll form in a wide variety of thicknesses and lengths.Information provided by Thermoseal Inc. |
