Product Description

Engineered for perfection in the most demanding environments, Chunhuan Expanded PTFE (ePTFE) Gaskets represent the pinnacle of sealing technology. Manufactured from 100% pure PTFE through a proprietary expansion process, our gaskets create a unique microporous fibrous network that delivers near-zero leakage. They provide unmatched resistance to extreme temperatures, aggressive chemicals, and corrosive media, making them the trusted sealing solution for critical applications across global industries.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Unrivaled Chemical Resistance: Virtually inert, our ePTFE gaskets are immune to almost all aggressive chemicals, including strong acids, strong alkalis, and organic solvents, preventing degradation and ensuring long-term seal integrity.
  • Extreme Temperature Performance: Excel in a breathtaking thermal range from cryogenic temperatures as low as -268°C (liquid nitrogen) to high-temperature steam services up to +280°C, eliminating the need for multiple gasket types.
  • Superior Sealability & Resilience: The unique microporous structure is soft and highly compressible, allowing it to conform perfectly to flange surface imperfections. Its exceptional elastic recovery (“seal memory”) maintains bolt load, compensates for thermal cycling, and resists cold flow, reducing the need for frequent re-torquing.
  • Clean & Contamination-Free: Made from 100% pure PTFE without any binders, additives, or fillers. This ensures a ultra-clean, non-contaminating seal critical for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and food processing applications (FDA compliant).
  • Reliability & Cost Efficiency: Excellent resistance to creep relaxation and cold flow ensures a stable, reliable seal under low bolt loads, significantly reducing maintenance costs and downtime over the product’s lifespan.

Applications:

Our ePTFE gaskets are specified by engineers for critical sealing challenges in:

  • Chemical Processing: Reactors, vessels, agitators, and pipe flanges handling corrosive acids and alkalis.
  • Semiconductor Manufacturing: High-purity gas and chemical delivery systems where particulate contamination is unacceptable.
  • Pharmaceutical & Biotech: Sterile processing, freeze-dryers, and API production requiring FDA-compliant, non-extractable materials.
  • Food & Beverage: CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems, mixers, and fillers needing resistance to cleaning agents and solvents.
  • Oil, Gas & LNG: Cryogenic valve and flange seals in LNG service, and corrosion-resistant seals in refining.
  • Power Generation: Seals for heat exchangers, pumps, and valves in both conventional and nuclear plants.
