Outstanding Versatility
Gore-Tex gasket tape withstands temperatures from -450° to +600°F (-268° to +315°C), seals internal pressures up to 3,000 psi (200 bar) (1,800,000 P x T factor), and is unaffected by most chemicals (except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine). It's ideal for cryogenic applications and is FDA/USDA suitable for use in food processing and pharmaceutical industries. You can use it just about anywhere. And it lasts indefinitely, when used within its operating parameters. It is non-contaminating and non-aging.

Always fits just right
Because it is engineered to exacting width and thickness specifications, Gore-Tex gasket tape will always fit perfectly on sealing surfaces where compressed thickness and/or width is critical. It is ideal for any application that has complicated or narrow sealing surfaces, that needs edge to edge coverage or that requires full-face gasketing.

Ideal for Original Equipment
Gore-Tex gasket tape is an engineered form-in-place material similar to sheet gasketing; yet, it usually is more cost effective than sheet due to the elimination of scrap. Because of its ability to fill large surface irregularities, a high grade surface finish is not necessary which can save time and money. And, stress factors can be calculated accurately using conventional methods. You can depend on Gore-Tex gasket tape for a consistently perfect fit every time.

Gore-Tex expanded PTFE makes the difference. Its highly fibrillated structure contains millions of fibrils that give unique characteristics to all gasketing products made from Gore-Tex expanded PTFE. On compression, the fibrils lock together, forming a solid homogeneous mass that is impervious to gases and liquids. Gore-Tex expanded PTFE is flexible and stable under high temperatures, and maintains its high tensile strength. It is incredibly resistant to creep, providing an extremely tight seal for controlling fugitive emissions. No other form of PTFE is made this way or exhibits these characteristics.
