Expanded PTFE Gasket Sheet Material 24SH

Construction

24SH gasket sheet is manufactured by expanding 100% virgin PTFE using a proprietary process that produces a uniform and highly fibrillated microstructure with equal tensile strength in all directions. The resulting product exhibits characteristics significantly different than conventional PTFE sheet. This style is much softer and more flexible than regular PTFE sheet and thus conforms easily to irregular and rough surfaces. In addition, the material is easier to compress and minimizes creep and cold flow.

Application

TEADIT ® 24SH gasket material complies to FDA regulations for food contact and EU 1935/2004. 24SH is an all purpose gasket sheet that can replace all other types of PTFE sheet. It will seal all aggressive chemicals over the entire 0-14 pH range, except for molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine. Made from 100% virgin PTFE, it not only resists chemical attack, but it will not contaminate or discolor end products.

Expanded PTFE sheet material is common for applications in the following industries:

• Distillers
• Pharmaceutical
• Iron and Steel Manufacturing
• Petrochemical
• General Chemical
• Pulp and Paper
• Food and Beverage
• Power Generatin
• Marine

Advantages

Universally employable gasket sheet for all applications. It is suitable for all types of flanges, nearly all media, a wide temperature range and for applications with the toughest demands on purity. It is inherently clean and non-toxic. Gaskets of multi-directionally expanded PTFE have exceptional mechanical strength which allows operation with minimal creep at elevated temperatures. Gaskets cut from TEADIT ® 24SH are dimensionally stable, i.e. they do not get wider when compressed. This allows narrow flange faces to be sealed safely. TEADIT ® 24SH is quick and simple to install. The used gasket can be removed easily and without residue.
